Description:  I thought I was in a Twilight Zone episode...but it's November 22, 2018 - What a totally pleasant surprise coming into Port Robinson this morning on the Stamford Subdivision. CN 1501, an RDC (Rail Diesel Car) converted to a Self-Propelled Track Geometry Car, was originally a CN RDC-1, labelled D-108, built in 1958 for passenger service. As an RDC-1 it had coach seats only. All RDCs, except for the RDC-5/9, have two diesel engines driving the wheels, so they are self-propelled and have operator controls at each end.

Title:  CN 1501
Description:  CN 1501 - built in 1958. Today, identified as Train 999 by the dispatcher, I caught the train first here, coming into the yard at Port Robinson, then drove around to the south end for a shot into the yard as it lined up near the yard office. I missed it coming out of the yard, but after a very lively chase, caught up to it again approaching the Brookfield Wye, where it was headed to do some track testing.

Title:  CN 1501
Description:  Quite the surprise came across the diamonds next! This Budd Car built for CN in 1958 is what CN uses as their track geometry train. Today, the crew checked the line between Battle Creek and Griffith. Wasnt too sure if Id ever get to see this in person. I believe it is the oldest piece of track evaluating equipment (owned by a Class 1 Railway) that operates to this day.
