BCR Royal Hudson Passenger Train Announced

Reservations are being taken for the British Columbia Railway 25th Anniversary Royal Hudson Excursion Train. Cars are being manufactured by Rapido Trains in conjunction with Pacific Western Rail Systems.

This looks like a very interesting passenger train. More information is in the link below.

I have no financial interest in this project. I don’t work for Rapido Trains or PWRS. I think it a very cool train that bought pleasure to many people over the years.

Interesting train, but NO motive power. CPR 2860, or even better 2816, might sell well. I personally thought the pre-streamlined CPR Hudsons the more attractive.

I couldn't agree with you more...

I know Dan at PWRS has been talking about it (both of them) but "Duffman says alot of things"  ::)
