Cabooses (Cabeese?) in Retirement (Video)

In my travels I've found several cool uses for cabooses in their "retirement" years. I've compiled those into this video here.

There is a caboose incorporated into a restaurant across the lake from you in Vermont on the access road to Killington Ski Resort.  We ate there about 20 years ago in the cupola, which actually protrudes above the restaurant roof, so you get quite the view.

That's fantastic, I will definitely have to check that out sometime! I can already see a part 2 being made with all of the cool suggestions coming in.
