I see IRSI is advertising in Railway Age now. The August 2006 issue has a classified ad from IRSI offering "Twenty-seven (27) Stainless Steel Budd RDC cars for sale." ... "Cars are available for sale as is, rebuilt in-kind, or as a custom engineered remanufacture to meet end-user specifications." No price is given, of course.

Let's hope they get some interest!
