The cab looks to be in good repair but does not appear to be used for tours. It harkens back to the heyday of southern towns when boxcar after boxcar was loaded with cotton bales for the journey to textile plants in North and South Carolina. Of course in those days, the train always had a cab at the rear of the train.
Current Use: Display at a county museum
Type Of Caboose: Cupola, "Standard"
