If I recall, the power units were not a success, but what was the feeling about the passenger cars?

They are mostly still in service, albeit without the banking equipment they were delivered with.
Although their days are numbered.

While I am not a big fan of these, thank God for Rapido Trains making these unique trains for those that do. Very unique looking trains to say the least. Great pictures.

Appreciate it. I can't remember whether the banking feature wore out or that it wasn't right from the start. Were they generally regarded as good cars to ride?

LRC car achilles heal is the aluminum frame. 
Wonder how the ex-GO carts on the ONR are structurally these days ?
