Ed, check out this Conrail caboose. http://www.railcarphotos.com/PhotoDetails.php?PhotoID=30061 It looks like an Atlas Trainman caboose would make a great starting point. It is based on an ATSF model, right?
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

I would guess it was NYC at one time?

Here is one at Brier Hill, Youngstown, OH next to the old Erie shops:

No, ATSF was the original owner

One of 7 ATSF cabs converted for CR. All had bay windows. Some were round roofs while others were angled as seen here. Cory and I have both worked on this project before. Mine is built, but not decaled. BTW the Bachmann cab would be a starting point for this car. I used the LL ATSF cab to model a round roofed version.

Oh man, that's hot, and damn tempting.
