Remarks & Notes

Near the end of their short tenure on Amtrak's Hartford/Springfield line, a pair of Budd SPV-2000 railcars cant into a curve south of Berlin, CT, on their way to a mainline connection at New Haven. Chronic mechanical troubles would lead to these cars being converted into unpowered coaches for Shore Line East commuter service.
