Caboose

I saw this caboose sitting by itself on an abandon railway on the edge of town this morning. I meant to get to it with the sunset lighting it this evening, but I was unable to get there in time. I LOVED trains when I was little and the caboose was the best part. It let you know the show was over. I looked it up on the Internet just prior to typing this and found out that they were used for long freight lines, but now most trains are regional so they have become extinct. In this case it has become a canvas for some rising Portland artist. I walked around to the other side to get a shot with the west hills in the back ground, but apparently graffiti artist only like their work to face roads.
