Seems fitting with a new run of Roadrailers from Bowser in the near future,to start up a thread on them.
Amtrak had 3 versions of them: the side door version,sometimes used as a "baggage" car,
the regular "Plate Wall" type,handling express packages or US Mail.
Then toward the end of the "Express Experiment".there was a brief run of "Reefer-railers"
used for materials and foodstuffs needing a temperture controlled enviroment while in transit.
It should be noted after being pulled from service,the Roadrailers were sold off to NS
I will allow for reference purposes,comments about other Roadrailer services by the Freight RR's
as long as it relates to the topic
