Comments on: Leading a southbound work extra with one of six former Illinois central cabooses. Howe Sound is behind and Highway 99 is in the foreground. BCOL 707 is an M-630, built by Montreal Locomotive Works in 1970 as Pacific Great Eastern 707. After retirement in 1990, it became National Railways of Mexico (FNM) 707 then Ferromex 707. BCOL 763 is an SD40-2 built by General Motors Division in 1985, retired in 2009 and current whereabouts unknown. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?

Since a work train is pictured, I surmised that this was a former IC caboose. Perhaps I am mistaken.
