Find it funny how its crediting because I basically used the Churchill train which has the F40PH then removed it to work on the coaches
This train is fast as hell and has limited throttle control, so please be careful. This train consists of two BUDD RDC Cars (MDU). One of which is solely economy, and the other is cargo. Interestingly enough, this train was built in Canada by Canadian Car & Foundry.
