International Car Company Extended Vision Caboose Vol. I Premium Instructions
Our model faithfully represents the International Car Company extended vision cabooses built beginning in the 1960’s and continuing through the mid 1970’s. They saw a service life through to the end of the caboose era service with many surviving in preservation today.
New for this BMR Premium Instruction Kit, we are including hex-pattern roller bearing tiles printed by Brick Print Studios. These tiles recreate the look of spinning roller bearings on the trucks the car. Eight tiles are included, enough to build one complete car, and more tile sets may be purchased separately.
Our instructions include options to build the caboose as Reading, Conrail, Detroit Toledo & Ironton, Missouri Pacific, Santa Fe “Original”, or Santa Fe “Kodachrome Schemes, with details and interior layout accurate to each individual caboose.

Our Premium Instructions Kit contains the following:
1 professionally printed 164 page instruction book with full color instructions, part list for each of the six cabooses, prototype information, and building tips
1 set of black hex-pattern roller bearing tiles (8 tiles per kit)
7 black Brickarms Monopods used for detailing
4 assembled train axles with ball bearings. Enough to build one car. These wheel sets come fully assembled, with ball bearings pre-installed in new LEGO® Technic bricks, custom sized axles to fit the bearings, washers to prevent wheels from rubbing the bricks and causing excess friction, and new LEGO train wheels.
Why use bearings? Because ball bearings provide excellent free rolling operation. Better than stock LEGO wheel sets. Less resistance means the rail car is easier to pull. And the easier a car is to pull the less strain on locomotives, and the more cars you can pull.
All you need to provide is the LEGO bricks from your own collection. Build the car in the color of your choice, or you can purchase decals to build the car in one of the following authentic railroad paint schemes bellow.
