The Pennsylvania Railroad built Altoona. Some of the relics of the past are still here. This caboose sits in the parking area of Benzel's Bretzel factory. A friendly engineer waves from the window. You can enjoy the outside of this caboose, but may not enter or climb on it. The caboose may be visited any day, but the factory outlet is open Tuesday through Saturday.
