Just saw a reference on MFCL to a line of 3D parts made by Shapeway, the individual store name (designer) is he6agon. The person behind it is Ryan Harris of Fort Worth, who I don’t know. Here are the parts available. They’re mostly designed for the Atlas caboose as a base.

And here’s a link to Ryan’s pbase page for cabooses: http://www.pbase.com/mecrharris/caboose
I’ve bought a few small 3D printed parts to experiment, but nothing as big as this. The MP cabs here are too new for me anyway…
But this is nothing short of astonishing. I’d like to suggest that somebody who has the time and inclination try to build one of these and comment.
