  9. Well, you can either buy them, or if you want to see them in active service you will only see them on local freights that have long shove moves and mine runs (coal trains) that require long shoves. They aren't put on the end of mainline freights anymore and it's been that way since the early 80's I believe. They now have an E.O.T.D (End of Train Device) which monitors brake pipe pressure from the rear to the front of the train and gives the engineer a reading of the air throughout the train on what is called an HOT. Sorry to get so technical..lol. Those devices replaced the cabooses main job.
