N5 Series (ex-PC) Cabooses

The N5 series cabooses were inherited from the Penn Central (and they got them from the Pennsylvania). The PRR's N5C was an iconic caboose, easily identified by its streamlined cuploa and porthole windows. The other N5 cars were more conventional looking, but were also still serving through the end of the caboose era on Conrail.
