For those who don't keep up with DTM on Facebook, there has been some news relating to the contents of this DLC. In addition to the SD45T-2, and the Twin Stack cars, this pack also will include an older mechanical reefer, an SP Boxcar, and an SP bay window caboose! No pics of the caboose yet, but the reefer and boxcar are pictured below. I don't know about you guys, but this is a day 1 purchase for me!

Will the bay window have a passenger view?

If there is none I'll think about aliasing the Feather River's bay window caboose passenger view.

Sweet, it looks great, except for the missing frog light on the roof.

Saying I'm excited about this just doesn't do the feeling justice. This pack will be prominently featured in some of the scenarios for the Siskiyou.

Me too.

That caboose is long overdue. Still a WIP, but it already has leaf spring caboose trucks.

Details that might be adjusted added:
wagon wheel antenna with spokes instead of the solid disk?
outside dynamo and belts?
emergency red light (is that referred to as "frog light")?

Now only a standard Santa Fe caboose is needed to accomplement this one.

Here's a link to some prototype reference photos.

http://espee.railfan.net/sp_c-40-07.html

DTM did a nice job on the model. Based on the caboose number and comparing against photos, the model seems based on the C-40-07 class. The red warning light could be mounted on the roof or on the end bulkhead just below the roof line. It just depended on when the caboose was outshopped. From the photos I saw, the antenna ground plane is solid. Nice thing about this class of caboose... it was the same class used for SP's bicentennial caboose #1776. Just a guess here, but maybe DTM will also do a SP bicentennial pack at some point, as SSW 9389 was a SD45T-2.
