After World War II train cars began to be taller and wider than their predecessors, and the extended-vision or wide-vision caboose answered the problem: its cupola projects out past the sides of the car body so the conductor and rear brakeman could see beyond the tops and sides of the cars ahead. The design was used on most U.S. railroads through the caboose era. Shipping weight 0.5 pounds; recommended for ages 14 and up.
