Locomotive Engineers were treated to their own accommodation when assigned to work trains. On the other hand, the conductor and both brakemen had to sleep, cook, eat, and work in the caboose.

    Fabulous photo First954. A classic CN red fleet BKD (bunk, kitchen, diner). Underslung propane tanks for the cook stove, refrigerator, and, maybe a water heater. Still no electricity in the car, but looking good in fresh paint and stencils. I spent quite a few nights of my life in a variety of those beauties.
