Unusually, Freightliner had a shunter parked at Ipswich. Unfortunately, 66529 moved into a position which blocked it from view so I couldn't see its number. The other two are 66419 and 66952.

Detroit and Mackinac #7 was purchased as war surplus by the Detroit and Mackinac Railway in 1948, who converted it to a baggage car by plating over several windows, and adding a baggage door and vestibules. After passenger service ended on the D and M in 1951, the car was made into a caboose, allowing D and M to retire several aging wooden cars in their cabooses fleet. In the 1970’s, a Detroit-Diesel generator was added to the car, in order for it to serve as a power car for D and M’s business-car fleet. In 2004 the Steam Railroading Institute purchased the car for use as an auxiliary power car.
