The
Sumpter Valley Railroad built caboose #5 in the Baker City shops in 1926 using parts salvaged from
an old Utah & Northern caboose. The original company conveyed the car to the Eastern Oregon Museum
in Haines, Oregon, when the railroad closed, and the Sumpter Valley Railroad Reconstruction obtained
the car back about 1980. The restoration group also has former Sumpter Valley caboose #3, which is
visually almost identical to the #5.
