Cabs still in use, in various locations- to the best of my knowledge: SP Police cab, white in color, at B'field. La Mirada has, or had, three; often seen on the Orange Subdivision and around the industries near La Mirada/Pico Rivera. The Corona Local, also bay window was at Colfax for a time. Calwa (Fresno) has two or three, and there is a MOW outfit based out of Whitefish that was in Barstow a few months ago that had one in full use. Richmond BNSF still has one. There is a BN cab at Riverbank, spotted on an industry track and seldom used. It used to be used when going out on the Ammo Lead. I did not see any in Barstow.
