QUOTE: Originally posted by stmtrolleyguy Like a new budd car? http://www.coloradorailcar.com/ I believe that this is the only company in the United States still working on a new self-propelled deisel passenger car. From what the website says, it looks like a good product. I believe Florida Tri-Rail is leasing their demonstrator to test this spring for a long-term test. They did a test run with it earlier and liked what they saw.

QUOTE: Originally posted by Old Timer Back in the late 1970s Fiat sent a self-propelled rail car over for test; it demonstrated on the Rock Island for several months, and I know not where else. Since the Rock's equipment cycles didn't have a spot for a one-car train - most of the light cycles had to make one or more trips where two of the bi-levels were pretty well loaded - it didn't prove to be feasible. It ran OK, though. Old Timer
