We just finished a vacation of little more than 1 week in Rockport, and took a few day trips to Boston using the Rockport line. For those of you who live in the Boston area you are fortunate to have such beautiful areas that are only 1 hour (give or take) from the city, considerinf that in the NYC area you can be 2 hours or more away from the city and still be in gridlocked suburbs.
While on the train I noticed the 2 former B & M RDC-3 cars that are parked, for lack of a better word, east of the tracks near the commuter rail shops. Whats the story with these 2 long forgotten Budd Cars, and why haven't they been towed away for scrap ??

PS If I am not mistaken aren't these Budds parked where the fleet of former B & M Budds were parked after they were withdrawn from service??
