I don't know if this linked publication provides the info trackwalker asked about in his original post [www.altamontpress.com], but it does have lots of caboose pix. You may find it interesting.

Here's the description, from the publication's website [issuu.com]:

Caboose - Trains

Published on May 6, 2013

The Image of a Little Red Caboose behind trundling Along a Long freight train is a Classic slice of Americana. With the help of nearly 300 marvelous modern and historical images depicting cabooses of all colors, this collection traces the development of this iconic, bygone rolling stock from the nineteenth century to their almost total demise by the mid-1990s. Bobber, cupola, bay window, and transfer cabooses are shown at work across the United States, in the process presenting the grand geographic scope of North American railroading. The photography is accompanied by detailed captions discussing caboose construction, function, history, and locations depicted.
