You rarely see a Caboose now days.
A very rare sight today. Mahalo for sharing.

What are they going to do with the locomotive?

Just a cosmetic restoration.
All that I see now-a-days are in public parks. This one looks like it just came out of the paint shop. It's dead set on remaining in service.
Nice one. There are many kinds or railway cars, but only one caboose.
Interesting and good captures. Another point: Administration will probably move this to the Photo Gallery OR the Trains forum.

Very cool! It adds quite a splash of color to an otherwise almost monotone image. A rare find indeed. :-)
Not just any caboose--a Nickel Plate caboose!

I was told a long, long, long time ago that the reason cabooses were placed at the back end of the train was to let the engineer know that he went the wrong way.
One of the first songs we learned as a child was about that Little Red Caboose behind the train for us over 50 years old but not so much anymore. Thank You for sharing
