Everyone loves a caboose.

But not outside the USA where we don't have them.

We do have Guard's Vans though.
Similar function, but usually a different design.

They too have disappeared.

You don't love cabooses? How weird. I suppose you hate trolleys too ;)

I either think that Lawrence doesn't have a lot of exposure to cabooses, or

Definitely. I'm glad to see LEGO provide some American style equipment.

Oh I absolutely love Cabooses and Trolleys.  I don't like the new one

caboose (IMO)

That is NOT absolutely NOT a caboose. It's a coach.
