My sister and I rode one of those RDC-1 self-propelled rail cars up through the Feather River Canyon before they ruined it with the Oroville dam. In fact our dad worked for Western Pacific and they actually referred to it as "The Budd Car"
The six lug hubs and associated parts were airport limousine parts. Yep, the stock tri 5 Chev stuff was weak. The rears for example..
This looks like Maxton, NC airport where the East Coast Timing Association ran land speed racing events. There were two Studebakers that raced there and looked a lot like this one. This course was 1 mile. I worked as a course worker there for many years.
