Remarks & Notes

The IC3 is a Danish-built high-comfort medium/long distance diesel multiple-unit train. The sets were built by ABB Scandia (later purchased by Adtranz, which itself was subsequently acquired by Bombardier Transportation). The name indicates simply that it is a three-car InterCity trainset. In 1996, an Israel Railways IC3 was tested in North America under the name "Flexliner." Amtrak used it on the Hiawatha, the San Diegan and also between Eugene and Portland, Oregon; VIA Rail Canada tested it for services on the Windsor–Québec corridor. The IC3 is seen here operating as San Diegan #570, making a station stop in Fullerton on the afternoon of July 28, 1996.
