The following is from a display on the car: A caboose served as the office for the trains conductor, who kept track of the destinations of the trains cars using written waybills and switching lists. It also housed one or more brakemen who assisted the conductor, kept watch over the train while moving, and helped perform switching operations. UP 25086 (originally 3786) was one of 100 class CA-3 cabooses, the railroads first all-steel units. It incorporated a desk, a stove for cooking and heating, crew bunks, and an enclosed toilet.
