Reading & Northern’s RDC “Buddliner” #9168 (RDC-1) leads their two car train towards Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania, after passing through Nesquehoning Tunnel on October 5th, 2024.
According to their website: The Reading and Northern Railroad owns and operates three self-propelled Rail Diesel Cars #9166, #9167, and #9168. The cars were built by the former Budd Company of Philadelphia in the 1950’s for commuter use by various railroads. All of our RDCs have functional windows and clean restrooms, and are fully climate controlled.
The #9167 & #9168 are full coaches offering comfortable padded seats that flip to face whichever direction the train is traveling.
The #9166 is a half coach. The other half of the car features a snack counter and seating area where snacks and light refreshments could be served.
