UAC train was originally used between NYC and Boston. Eventually is was used in the US on other Routes, occasionally (Parkersburg, wv). RTG prototype train was used in the Midwest mostly between Chicago and St. Louis for a few years. The Rohr Turbotrain, based on the French train,but with pointy noses, were used mostly in Empire State Service, or on the Adirondack to Montreal. At least that's what I recall.

If you move up the arrival date of the Rohr/RTG tubroliners to about 1968, they might have used Grand Central Terminal, in addition to the UAC Turbotrain, that might have orginally been purchased by the New Haven.

Either that, or maybe after the Rohr trains were used on the Adirondack, after about 1974, and you were modeling Montreal. Don't know which station Amtrak used there, about that time, but CN also had copies of the UAC Turbotrain.

Yes, P/bucket (read that as it pronounces) I'm sure have lost some of mine, and when I uploaded some from my computer, for a thread on here the other day, instead of going into the album I had selected (and that is also a hastle to find now) only put them into "recent uploads". A real mess that site is now.
