The M-10000
M-10000 was a fully articulated three car trainset which during it's tours underwent many tests and attracted masses of people. The name "Streamliner" became a byword for American passenger trains. With the acceptance of this concept by the riding public the Union Pacific put it's plans of a system wide service into high gear.
The M-10000 three car articulated train was powered by a 600 HP Winton distillate burning engine traveled at speeds of 100 MPH during routine operations.

One was the long standing speed record between Dix and Potter (9 miles) in 4 minutes 30 seconds or 120 MPH.
