I was involved with the ocean shipment of the 6 car Royal Train that Budd built for the King of Morocco, based on the SPV-2000. 4 powered and 2 idler cars. There is a long story about these cars. I have a scanned photo of one being loaded on our ship in Philadelphia. It may be the only photo in public circulation. The kicker was when Budd found out on delivery that the cars were 6 inches too high for the Moroccan rail system. The train seems to have disappeared after that.
