Hmm... Lowly equip-MONK...
I'm an equ-APE-ment...



But yes, I plan to weather the caboose.  The other two cars in those shots are weathered with powders already.

Would it have been heavily weathered at the time he's modeling?  Wooden cars just about had to be maintained to preserve their structural integrity.

It's not going to look like a narrow gauge caboose in the 50s...  A little subtle weathering on the trucks and couplers with some dust on the sides perhaps.
