| Robin,
The Mack Railbus in described in Corbin and Hardy’s Burlington in Transition on page 115. There is an excellent photograph and drawing of it on page 124. The car was numbered 501. Mack supplied the chassis and the drive train from their Allentown, PA plant. The chassis was shipped to McGuire-Cummings in Paris, IL where they applied the body. The drive train was a standard mechanical truck transmission. It had a baggage compartment at the rear. As Ken Martin noted, it was used on branch lines on the Wymore Division.
