The GO looks like the same as manufacturer as the San Diego Coaster, Seattle
Sounder and the Miami Tri-Rail (as Larry said). The Coaster and Sounder have
a great paint job. Unfortunately there are no great pics of these...


Actually, they do share a manufacturer, but the GO cars came first (Hawker
Siddley (?)/UTDC was the first maker, I think Bombardier now make them).  Other
places where they are used include "West Coast Rail" out of Vancouver-no, I
don't have photos, LA had some GO cars after one of the earthquakes (complete
with GO paint scheme...), and I believe contiues to use the same design of
cars.

We have a air tank at my dad's that was supposed to be for the GO
trains...unfortunately, it was too long, so got sold off for ~$1 - a darn'd
good buy for a 150 psi 50 gal tank :)
