Super Dome Tour


Here we are looking again at the head end of the car. The stairs shown were used to get over the truck area and the hallway was adjcent to the 70 HP diesel generator, which powered the car, it also led to the demise of Super Dome 50. During a demonstration run the train derailed, and the diesel spilled over the car and was ignited by the arching overhead wire. Fortunatlly the car was rebuilt and once again delivered.
The dark shaded area represents the area of the car shown in the photo.
