Isn't this the style of caboose that some of the eastern U.S. railroads had?
Like Reading and Pennsylvania" The Pennsylvania Railroad called theirs the N5
Cabin Cars...I believe.

I have seen a few photo's of CPR steel side center cupola vans with
slanted sides and faces on the cupola; never a close up of one; in
it's odd that the few shots I've seen are always from a distance.Does
anyone have photos/diagrams of these vans and have any information on
their origin/build date/area of use etc....
Many thanks in advance.
