Brakevans

The brakevan, also known as the guard's van or caboose (in American narrations), is an important part of every goods train. It carries the guard and is equipped with a strong brake to assist with slowing and stopping the train. From here, the guard can keep an eye on the train in case of problems.

TriviaEdit

Between seasons eight and twelve, brakevans were rarely seen. During Greg Tiernan's stint at directing, brakevans were seen more often.
To date, three brakevans have been named: Beatrice, Cora, and Toad.
Four different types of brakevan have been seen on the Island: a hybrid of the BR Standard 20 Ton and the Southern Railway 25 Ton "Pillbox" van, GWR toads, LMS 20 ton, and LB&SCR Stroudley 20 ton vans.
