The LCCA brings the excitement and adventure of the doodlebug back with the introduction of doodlebugs herald for the Alaska Railroad and in continuing livery for the LCCA of the Texas Special. 

For experienced railroad buffs, there is no need to define a doodlebug as a self-contained rail passenger car with its own engine. It is a railroad’s equivalent to a street trolley, a single self-powered unit carrying passengers and freight. These strange creatures of the rails played an important role in transportation history, keeping rail passenger service alive to underserved communities for years.

NOTICE - The Alaska version of the Doodlebug sold out as of 1/12/2025
