Railpictures.ca - Michael Berry Photo: As seems to be the case every weekend, caboose CN 79834 is seen parked in Vankleek Hill on CN’s Vankleek Spur. This caboose was built by CN in their Pointe St-Charles shop in Montreal under the same number. CN sold it to the Ontario L’Orignal Railway (OLOR) in 1996, which was taken over by the Ottawa Central Railway. In 2008 CN took over the Ottawa Central and renumbered the caboose back to its CN number. It is used for backup moves on the L’Orignal Spur and is in progressively worse shape. | Railpictures.ca – Canadian Railway Photography

Sad. I remember riding in these beauties when I was a conductor.
