Here's what Ed's used to look like...  There's a caboose there on one of the caboose tracks.  I had a thru track that let me work either end.  I also had a small track behind the engine terminal for eastbound cars.

I believe it was a stub track, there wasn't much traffic going east that needed a fresh caboose.  Maybe a local that originated in the yard and headed east.  Otherwise, crew and cab changes took place on the main track shown above.  I had a platform for servicing the cabooses.  Never detailed it all the way out, but it was functional.
