<p>Looking at Andrews fine video of the arrival and travels of 1501, it looks like this 'boose was dropped off somewhere near Willowbrook along with 1922. Southbound 2009 was picked up.</p>
<p>Must be some kind of plan to do something with the boose with 1922.</p>

<p>It's called a "Bay Window" style caboose. Simply amazing to see NWP using the #1971 in 2016 on the end of a train. Never say never in railroading.</p>

<p>Correct, it was 1971 and still said Southern Pacific. Was a flat top model (no upper cabin) or what ever you call these models. I could see that had at least one worker on board.</p>

The NWP caboose would most likely be #1971, an ex-SP C-50-5 built in the mid-1970s.

<p>A great question Drake. We live in Burlingame and have noticed one in operation on occasion along the peninsula. It's stationed in SSF and I believe they are used as shoving platforms these days. However they use it, it makes me happy as heck to see one working in this day and age.</p>
