Old caboose
Title:  Old caboose
Description:  I have watched this local shove work in the Newton yard before and always wondered, why do they drag along this old boarded up caboose? Then one evening as I took this shot of the train backing up it hit me, flashing lights on top of the engine indicated it was in remote control and the driver was standing on the platform of this caboose. There are 2 major grade crossings to pass on the return to the yard and this affords a place for the engineer to stand and check the track.
