What in heck is a "transfer caboose"?
I've been reading various rr magazines electronic and otherwise for two or
three years now, have seen the term many times, but have been unable to
puzzle out the meaning from context.
Also, can someone explain how the function of a transfer caboose
is related to the designs used for them?
