BUDD RDC PHOTO INDEXES - Alaska to Cape Cod Railroad




UPDATED WITH OVER 42 NEW LINKS ADDED.

To email me about a "broken" link just CLICK HERE. 

If you are looking for information and/or photos of Budd RDCs used by Amtrak I highly recommend visiting Jim Hebner's Amtrak Photo Archives.  On his site he features an extensive collection of photographs of most Amtrak locomotives as well as a large collection of photos of various passenger cars, express cars, Roadrailers, and even a couple of "Amtrak" buses, making it the best place on the web to view Amtrak rolling stock.  Just click the Amtrak car below to go to his site...

Also I highly recommend to anyone who want to learn more about the Budd RDC cars to come and join the BUDD Rail Diesel Car list at Yahoo Groups.  This email list is a great source for information, both past and present, on the many RDCs that were produced and a great place to share photos and information.  To visit the homepage just click on the RDC drawing below:
