Image Captions The class CA-4 cabooses are nearly identical to the Class CA-3s. A total of 100 of each class were produced by Pullman-Standard Manufacturing Co. in Michigan City, Indiana between September and November 1944. They were built with wood-beam trucks and were painted freight car brown (UP called it Synthetic Red). All of the CA-4 cabooses were repainted in the yellow paint scheme in 1947. The wood beam trucks were replaced with all-steel outside-swing hanger trucks in an upgrade program in 1952. The 25176 is one of seven CA-4s that were upgraded for Pool service in 1975, which included upgraded toilets, shatter-proof single pane windows, refrigerators, oil heating, radios, roller bearing trucks, and steel platforms. The large P on the cupola was added as part of the upgrade to designate its pool service. It was built in October 1944 as UP 3876, renumbered in March 1959 and retired on January 3 1989.
