MBTA RDC1 70
Title:  MBTA RDC1 70
Description:  Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) RDC1 70 at Boston, Massachusetts on an unknown day in April 1979, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Based on accumulated information, this MAY be former Hew Haven RDC1 25 (c/n 5605) built by Budd in 1952. It appears that it later became PC 70, and later still MBTA 70. If this is correct, it last ran for the MBTA about 1989.
