☝️🤓 Um, actually, the 4-decade-old "Pacer" (pictured) was retired a few years ago.

It was replaced by the exciting new "Sprinter", merely 40 years old.

Wow! So futuristic!

I'm kinda surprised there hasn't been a retrofit of some kind to at least make an attempt at aerodynamics for it. I guess it would be minimal efficiency savings.
