My wife and I used to see this regularly on the Milwaukee Road north of
Chicago:  A switcher, two cars, (typically 1 box and 1 gon) and a cabbose.

Talk about your basic train set!

We joked that it was some really *RICH* model railroader who had gotten
the ultimate Christmas present.

The SOO Line often runs trains with more than one cabbose, sometimes
all at the end, sometimes spread through the train.
