It's not a caboose. A caboose has a cupola or a bay window, or at least,
a work area for the conductor. It's not a pullman. A pullman has beds,
washrooms, a porter's office, etc.

It's a coach. It's really pretty simple to remember coach, I think.

The best car though is the caboose/pullman/whatever on the end. It looks
really nice on the track when you use the classic engine to pull a 7818
Coach or 7820 Mail Van followed by the caboose.

OK. It is a coach. Larry, have you seen the spring S@H catalog? The catalog has 3225 pictured and points out "Only caboose available for Lego trains!" :) Bryan to wife - "Can you hand me that coach car?" Wife - "Its a caboose... And say please." (...) (25 years ago, 4-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)
