Penn Central RDC

The New Haven's RDC's were acquired by Penn Central in the merger and many of the cars remained in service on their home turf in commuter and branch line service in Massachusetts and Connecticut. They also got a rather striking new livery, which was heavily influenced by how the New York Central had painted their RDC's.
