Got To Ride Tha Caboose Today – image 1

LAST EDITED ON Mar-01-05 AT 04:11 PM (EST)

Today I got to see and feel how it used to be in the old times. Worked the local today and we had a caboose. We ended up with 50 cars and we shoved back into town, about 5 miles and I got a taste of the action. It was kinda rough at 30 mph, so I can imagine what it used to be like at 70mph.Waiting to leave the yard

I'd rather ride up in that new AC44CW. Anyway, it's cool to see that they still use cabooses today in some places...
