Trenton, Nova Scotia, in March 1957 and serviced in September 1975. Charged with the responsibility of keeping all the

caboose. Immediately upon arrival at the terminal, they were set aside and subjected to a minimum of switching. Under no
circumstances were they to be used in switching other cars in the train.
