A cab car in a desert storm paint livery that looks more like a locomotive then Budd car. I could go for this.

DIFFERENT and Interesting idea for a Cab-Car, but NO WAY would I sit in those seats on the lower level "forward" of the entrance doors.
|
Yeah, that is neat! And it looks like it's smiling, too!
|
Strange looking external disc brakes.
|
Looks neater in a night shot. Thanks for posting.
|
It smiles because it knows its special and brand new.
|
The brakes are outside the wheels! That's quite unusual for an American train.
|
These brake shoes & discs are common on newer commuter equipment, the Bombardier Bi-Levels have these discs!
|
All the seats in the car face rearward, so when Metrolink has its next head-on collision, people will only be maimed, instead of dead.
|
UGLY from every angle! Top to bottom, front to real!

Joe, to be fair to Metrolink, Chatsworth was the only accident that was their own fault. Every other accident: Placentia, Glendale and Oxnard was either tragic luck or the negligence of another individual.
