The '80s also saw some bad derailments. Here's caboose 4764 on its side at New Brighton on Nov. 29, 1984. The shoofly was built around the wreckage shortly after the Nov. 19 derailment.

In the second photo, an inbound Santa Cruz Local passes another caboose on its side a few miles north of Santa Cruz on April 14, 1986. Since the last car has a FRED, I'm guessing that cabooses were discontinued on the Local around this time.
