Image alt and title tokens are unavailable in the Colorbox caption options, so it doesn't seem possible to build a caption using image meta information. See https://www.drupal.org/node/1947796

The tokens work with Colorbox trigger, but using [nid] in the Custom Colorbox Gallery does not limit the gallery by node, but shows all images in the query. See https://www.drupal.org/node/1779834

Any suggestions on how to make this work?

I ran into the same problem, it was caused by this found in colorbox_handler_field_colorbox.inc

$gallery = drupal_html_class($this->options['custom_gid']);

It was stripping out all tokens before they could be substituted. I fixed it with this patch.

This had me stumped for way too long... It definitely strips off the tokens. The technical parts of the patch above worked great, so I've tried to rework the patch. Hopefully this works.

I can confirm this works. I've updated the patch to remove some commented out code.
