Brakevans

From Thomas the Tank Engine Wikia

The brakevan, also known as the guard's van and the caboose, is an important part of a 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.
