An interesting little piece of history. This caboose, made in 1954 in Montreal at the Angus shops. It served for many years of service until donated to the City of Brockville by Canadian Pacific in 1987. As anyone who knows me, I'm a real train buff, so I really enjoy bringing people to local rail history, I hope you enjoy this. At certain times they open it up for tours and history lessons.
