Carolina, Clinchfield & Ohio caboose #1048 – This caboose was built by the CC&O at their Erwin Tennessee shops in 1924, following standard caboose plans in use at that time. It was used by the CC&O and later Clinchfield Railroads until the 1960s, when all wooden cabooses were replaced by steel on that railroad. The Samuel Spencer Chapter, NRHS purchased the caboose in the 1987 and began to completely restore from the wheels to the roof, inside and out. Today it is occasionally used for caboose trains around the property and is on loan for display from the Chapter.

DuPont Tank Car #6826 and Covered Hopper #38069 — The tank car was built in 1958 by AC&F Industries and the covered hopper in 1962 by the Magor Corporation. The E.I. duPont de Nemours and Company used these cars to help transport raw materials, including petroleum products, dies, plastics and paint to and from plants across the United States. From the 1900s, several private companies have operated their own fleet of railroad cars, helping save the cost of leasing equipment. DuPont still maintains their own cars, these were retired due to their friction bearing trucks. The NCTHC took donation of these cars in 1991, after DuPont had them repainted. The 6826 is on display in the Robert Julian Roundhouse and the 38069 is alongside the picnic shelters behind the L-3.
