Can anyone tell me the whereabouts of CP Rail RDC-2 #91? Is it still at the CP in Calgary? I plan on heading to Calgary next week and would like to see #91...
That is a pretty RDC car! I model in HO so I have Athearn RDCs and a Proto 1000 RDC. The Proto one is properly scaled and very nice but the Athearn ones look...
... BCRail's RDC-3s had a small kitchen in part of the RPO area; the actual RPO activity was carried out in the main baggage area of these cars. BC-30 and...
I think even VIA RDC 6148 has a food preparation area. A snack bar at the A end of the car where the baggage section used to be. Tyler Bevis R W King...
I can get some photos of BC-30 if anyone is curious how this arrangement looks. I'll probably just post them here in the group. Matt Wilton Scenic Railroad...
Hi Folks. I've just put up a bunch of the photos I took on my recent trip to Alaska of Budd RDCs #701 and #712 of the Alaska Railroad operating the Hurricane...
Bevis, Those are great photos. Looks like a wonderful trip. I'm especially glad to see Alaska RDC-2 712 in your pictures. In its previous life as New York...

Don ... The ride was unbelievably smooth. It really wasn't bouncing at all - it was just riding low and tight to the ground, there was a slight lean on the...
The Duke/Keilty RDC book, p. 206, shows a photo of 12 PRSL RDCs operating as a train. Pretty impressive. That probably is the record. [Non-text portions of...
