Remarks & Notes

The Roger Williams streamlined RDC stops at Canton Junction on a commuter run from Providence to Boston. This train was a one of a kind special version of an RDC that was supposed to lure drivers out of their cars and back into trains. These kinds of trains ultimately failed to do what the period of energy uncertainty accomplished.
