Caboose's Still being used?
#6
CP keeps one at Bedell Junction for the local switch job that serves the Co-op and a lumber dealer (I think). Don't know for sure if these industries are even rail served anymore, but the caboose is visible on the south leg:

Interesting note on the junction - the north/south line (no longer continuous across the double main) is the remnants of the first railway into Ottawa - the Bytown and Prescott.
