All kinds |
Description: |
VIA inherited a variety of RDCs from CP, including this RDC 2 with a baggage compartment. It probably came in handy. VIA ran quite a few remote area services, and the trains were a means of getting not only people, but good, to some places that were not well served by other transportation. |

Description: |
I had seen photos of RDCs before, but didnt know that VIA was still running them. Was kind of surprised when this train - #682 - came through the interchange. |
