    I didn't know it until reading the latest Classic Trains magazine, but the SP owned only one RDC, No. 10. Pretty cool. Reading further elsewhere, I find that it survives and is on its way to a museum for restoration. Check out those numberboards! :)

    What is the story about it surviving and being restored?

    That would be a great addition. I could keep the branchline operators honest by running this along the main and back.

    I can't recall the details, but it may have been moved from Galveston to somewhere in CA?
