How does it test PTC? Are there all sorts of mad scientists sitting inside of that caboose, analyzing data or something?

Unless they are testing hypotheses, they aren't scientists! Mad engineers? Probably not. Mad rail technicians, sure.

I saw this train a few hours earlier Northbound on the main at N. Dupy, just before 13:00. Thanks for the explanation. <<...>> Ed Knueppel Sussex, WI

This is a different one. I one I saw had the WC14 WC/ACR caboose
along with the CN1056.

Andy, I wonder if they were running multiple tests in opposite directions, or running the two 'at' each other as some kind of functional check? This caboose unit was the ICG 199436.
