We have a great new addition to the ongoing RDC project! Please welcome VIA Rail 6105 (RDC-1) and 6217 and 6219 (RDC-2), which wear the current 2010s rebuild scheme. These are amongst the last operating RDCs that VIA Rail rosters and we are proud to present this latest RDC variation!\nWhat makes these VIA Rail Budd RDCs so special? They're the last of their kind still in active service for a major passenger operation in North America. VIA 6105, 6217, 6219 and the rare Budd RDC-4, 6250, operate out of Sudbury to White River, Ontario. They run on trains 185 and 186, which are a thrice weekly turn. This service is an essential lifeline for people living in the Algoma district as well as supply lines and transport for visitors is the summer months.\nWe can't afford to tool all of the wackadoodle rebuild stuff that VIA did to these (unless you want to order 1000 for your layout), but we are able to do the major spotting features, such as steps, ends and additional lights.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rapido Trains Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50060854886646,"sku":"RT-16848","price":287.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/0560\/files\/rdc-2_via_new_3.jpg?v=1772394955","url":"https:\/\/mrmuffinstrains.com\/products\/rt-16848","provider":"MrMuffin'sTrains","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
