I used to railfan in Seattle around Balmer yard and the garbage local as well as a another local serving Boeing in Renton and the east side had cabooses with side windows covered on the lower level and the cupola uncovered as well as the end windows uncovered. I noticed the brakeman/conductor doing paperwork in there as well as being able to operate the switches in and out of the siding. So its still kind of a office and a end of train device all in one. <br /> <br />greg - in belgium now (no cabs here)
