Which model and when was the last long haul caboose produced? I realize cabooses still exist in modern use but are all re-worked old cabooses.

Do you have auto correct?
Did you mean LONG HAUL?

The last caboose was most likely built by International Caboose Co. in 1983 or 1984.

As the "U" and "I" are side by side a missed key? ("Autocorrect" make a mistake? Lots! )
There is a caboose book that mentions the end of caboose construction.
International Car Co. made the cabooses and they were bought by Pacific Car & Foundry.
Somebody who knows about Pacific Car & Foundry would know the exact details.

February 1983
