In 1975, COX began importing a line of HO-scale electric trains manufactured
in Hong Kong. During this period of offerings, COX cataloged a Wide Vision Caboose model in its rolling stock line.
Matching up with the roadnames found on the COX locomotive offerings was a Wide Vision Caboose release.
The Canadian market saw a number of exclusive roadnames and they are detailed below.

Lesisure Dynamics of Canada LTD. distributed the COX line in Canada.
The same practice of offering a matching roadname caboose model for each locomotive roadname offering was also done for the
Canadian market. Additionally, the Canadian market was home to the Robin Hood promotional train set and a Bundt lettered
Wide Vision Caboose exists for that set.
