The last time I saw a caboose on a regular freight was a couple of years ago on a CP freight at Swift Current, Saskatchewan. <br /> <br />I've always been a big caboose fan. I was about 4 or 5 when they started getting rid of cabooses. CP goes through my town and thankfully CP didn't stop using them until after CN. My parents tell me that when I was little that we were driving and I saw a CN freight and got really upset because there was no caboose. My parents had to tell me that there was a siding with a caboose on it behind some trees that they were going to pick up. Near the end it was fairly common to see trains go through town with 3 or more (I think the most was 6) cabooses on them.
