Various sites report a number of cabooses in Granite City in the train yards, including the following lines - A&S, B&O, CGW, CNW, CRI&P, ICG, MRS, TRRA and SOO. I could only find one. Caboose9, an expert, feels it must be a TRRA so is probably one of these - 577, 590 or 629.
Interestingly, they have made bike trails through the area with parking at trailheads and maps.
Current Use: storage and a signpost
Type Of Caboose: Transfer
