The mention of steam lines brings up a question or two.
WHY?
Were they to be used for heating the RDC, if the RDC was being used as a
regular coach and their engines were not running?
Were they in tended as a back up in case an RDC failed and had to be pulled
by a locomotive?
Were they pass through if there were cars behind the RDC in a train's
consist.
I would be very curious to know.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks both Dan and John.
The second photo link from Dan shows great underside detail, if a little out
of shape. I see that it had steam lines also.
