Found an old caboose, as well as old farm equipment, on display at the Pioneer Museum. It is connected to a steam engine that was used by the Imperial Irrigation District. Still in good condition, this caboose has the electrical generator inside with indoor plumbing. It was interesting trying to figure out what all the old vehicles were used for. We did recognize a hand-pump rail car used a bit in old comedy movies.
