Title:  B&O C-3034
Description:  B&O C-3034, a bay window caboose in the Chessie System paint scheme, is one of two cabooses on a southbound run from Parkersburg to Huntington, WV. This was a seemingly rare occurrence, to have two cabooses on one train, as I recall.

B&O C-3607
Title:  B&O C-3607
Description:  B&O caboose C-3607 was in the former C&O yards at Huntington, WV, on an unknown date in summer 1979.

Note that this caboose has not yet received the red flashing light above the brake wheel on the roof or overhang.

CSX 903961, looking north,
Title:  CSX 903961, looking north,
Description:  CSX 903961 is part of an exhibit in Huntington, WV in July 2005. The exhibit wasn't open when I was there, hence, I had to settle for taking pictures through the chain link fence! This is probably a former B&O car, as similar cars traveled up and down the fomer B&O Ohio River Subdivision between Wheeling and Huntington, WV.
