Penn Central budd metroliner

The Budd Corporation built the Metroliners between 1967 and 1969.

The Metroliners were designed to reach speeds of up to 150 miles per hour (240 km/h).

The Metroliners were intended to compete with air travel for business passengers.

The Metroliners were unreliable and had many problems, including track conditions and electrical issues.

The Metroliners were replaced by locomotive-hauled trains in the 1980s.

The Metroliner design was the basis for the Amfleet passenger cars, which were also built by Budd.
