DSP&P Waycar

The DSP&P Waycar is a utility car. It was added in Update 221115.
The Denver South Park & Pacific truly had a classic two-axle caboose (known colloquially as a waycar), which provided the conductors with an office space, stove, and sleeping bunk. These cars were built sans cupola, and served the DSP&P well after Union Pacific took over the railroad. Two more were built for the railroad, totaling around 20 built. Some sold off were upgraded to “Colorado & Southern Bobber Cabooses”, and one exists today at the Colorado Railroad Museum. There is also doubt about which two waycars went missing before 1885 - probably 2 of numbers 61, 62, 63, or 64.
Colorado Central also contributed waycars to the C&S, CC #1725 and 1726 became UPD&G #61 and 62 in 1897. #63 was built and the three became C&S #300, 301, and 302 in 1899-1900. The first two survived to 1912 and became C&S #1000 and 1001. https://www.ross-crain.com/south-park-line/history-photos-plans/waycar.htm
The cars were numbered as 60 - 82
