A condemned, gutted, 1929 Sante Fe railroad caboose will soon find a new life at the Oregon Dunes KOA Kampground in the Pacific Coast community of North Bend, Oregon. After refurbishing, it will become a cafe, complete with interior kitchen and outdoor deck. The caboose was used on freight trains that traveled between Chicago and California. Crews and conductors would live in it while they were traveling. Now campers can enjoy a meal or a snack while visiting the RV park.
