Housy caboose stack???

[Joetrain59]

I ordered one of Atlas' new EV caboose in Housy paint. Proto photo show's an unusual stack;

 Was suggested on RR.net/ Housatonic, it may be a Canuck version, eh?

Is there such a part available?

No roof bracing so it might be... don't know why the pic isn't showing and the link is broke, though...

Housatonic 654.

Actually it gets its paint colors honestly... built late by International Car for Maine Central (the centered cupola was a late-era thing with them, offered the last few years that they were building cabs and continued by Fruit Growers Express after ICC quit building them)...

Thanks Jerry. Can't even see any seems where windows were deleted, as  the MEC hack had windows.

Similar stacks were used by the PRR on N-5 and N-5C cabins and at one time offered in N-scale by Bowser. They may still have a stock. There is a "high" version and a "low" version.

I have gotten a very similar stack from Miniatures by Eric, I believe it was the CN, not CP, version...

What you are seeing is the other side... which had no windows...

Guess that's why they are on the platform with the door open.  It appears to be an one-of-a-kind, other cabs numbered above and below are earlier cabs with more typical window patterns.

thanks for the info guys. So I only have to fill windows on stack side.
 I'll check Mins by Eric for the stack.

I've never seen a stack like that with square tubing on CN or CP vans either.

That general shape with round tubing, yes, square no.
