Steve,
Okay, here is a few questions for you. I'm assuming that you saw 1588
with a bunch of road units? Sometimes you may see a unit in a road
consist that is isolated (on idle, not pulling), or dead (not running).
It may have been en route dead or isolated to Alyth Shop in Calgary for
maintenance or repairs.

It's only a single example, but I saw #1588 as part of a lashup
pulling a sizeable grain/mixed freight train heading south out of
Edmonton in June, 2008.
