Always great when a caboose is seen in a modern train

[@trailwayt9H337]

Differently very Amazing catching. I am really enjoyed is this video. Very excellent 👏👏❤️👍

[@lowellvillerailfanproductions]

Fun fact about the caboose. Most of them are now what the railroad called shunting wagons it called that because on most locals they put them on a train and when running in reverse the crew and stay safe and not have to hang on the the side ladders which is extremely dangerous.

[@SimonsEMDProductions]

We have a couple of them around here. I’ve seen conductors standing on the back of them while a train is reversing

[@wolf2179]

they also have stoves so it is an easy way to help keep your crew warm and dry during those cold and wet days and I am sure with some modification they can allow for electrical easily thus could put a small fridge in there as well so don't have to worry about your crew needing to cross the rails in the yard to eat or come in for water/drinks. So it adds to safety even more.

[@ChainsawNW1218]

Nice to see the SP caboose with a DPU on the rear and KCS dropping the signal!🛤🚂🇺🇲

[@geoffreysmommy]

The guy I know that worked for the railroad said they got rid of the cabooses. Mostly because they didn't want to worry about upkeep. They would rather have crews stand around in the weather waiting to shove someplace. Some times for hours. Then have them ride the side of a car for at least several hundred yards. Sometimes during heavy rains or even ice storms. Than do upkeep on one. Sometimes they couldn't ride the last car so they would have to walk the train in.

[@steverudder3321]

May I suggest that, if possible, make your zoom in or outs a little bit slower and smoother rather than thrusting us viewers in and out. Thanks!😁👍

[@Jeremy_UPRR]

Caboose is now in Bloomington texas Will be used as a shove platform for local job

[@stevek4153]

UP had been using an ex-SP caboose as a shoving platform in the Seattle district a few years ago. The local it was used on had a long push on a wye and it provided a safe place for the ground crew. It was no longer usable as a caboose because the complete interior including flooring had been stripped out and and all doors and windows sealed. Fun to see, for sure.

[@garyketola2382]

i miss watching them.i would love to have that in my yard

[@JohnM-zg2hq]

That sp mostly stay in Galveston 95% of the time but it does make it round to englewood yard from time to time

[@danielsobota9650]

[@kens.3729]

I Bet it’s going to a Museum or a Town in Somewhere U.S.A. 👍🙏

[@tommythomason6187]

Surprised at how many old hood units Union Pacific is still running. And, they all look like they're in fresh paint, or kept washed.

[@AbelG8781]

[@john72ss]

[@monsignore11]

i guess that are high-speed-traind. if they move with more than 20mph they would derail, because of the rubbish rails.

[@michaelwalsh9475]

Shame the punks with the spray bombs got to her. Bet a nice coat of gloss red would look spectacular!!

[@paulstecker5693]

Too bad people got a graffiti all over the thing. It looks like the graffiti caboose to me.
