One of these trainsets better be preserved. Considering the fate of the Rohr Turboliners, it is crucial that one of these be preserved for historical purposes.

The Rhor's were foreign junk, lol - but I'd have liked to have seen at least one preserved! The tragedy was in not saving a single example of the United Aircraft /Pullman Turbotrain which to this day still holds the North American high speed record for a production built train (non-experimental) which hit 170.8 mph at Princeton Junction on December 20th, 1967! RP photo album can be seen here. I agree however, at least one should be saved, if not more. Question is - will they save a full set or just the locomotive and perhaps a car or two as was done with General Moters "AeroTrain" seen here.
