Contributors Kennecott Mining Company
Image Captions This caboose was probably built as number 025 for the Utah Copper Company for use in the Ore Delivery Department. It is part of series 022 through 025 that were built by Pacific Car & Foundry. Cars 022-023 were delivered in December 1937, and cars 024-025 were delivered in February 1947. All were wood sheathed over a steel frame. Between 1950 and 1954 they were rebuilt at the Utah Copper car shops in Magna, with the wood sheathing covered with steel. In addition, Onan Power Units (diesel generators), Motorola Telephone radios, headlights and permanent markers for backup moves, a 55 gallon fuel tank, and battery box were installed. It was painted yellow with green trim, similar to the current condition of KMC 423 located inside the museum.
