Not sure when, and not sure how it got moved here - but this was the latest addition to the lone caboose at the Owen Sound station. Former CN Observation Car, in a semi-restored condition. Nice to see some of the former Owen Sound Sub. still in place as the town revamps the surrounding landscape with newer buildings.
