| Following WWII, the RF&P got swept up in the streamliner craze along with the rest of the nation's railroads. In addition to helping to haul trains for the Seaboard and others, they wanted one of their own. It wasn't until 1947 that AC&F finally caught up to the order and delivered the five-car lightweight "Old Dominion." The streamlined consist included four coaches and a cafe lounge car. Finished in a special paint scheme of gray, blue and gold, the train made a daily round trip between Richmond and Washington DC. Despite the fanfare however, the train lost money from day one and only remained in s ervice for a few short months. Nevertheless, we f ound the streamliner too pretty to pass up!
