RDC Tour : VIA Rail: Exterior
 
Although the Rail Diesel Car has couplers on both ends, the RDC was not designed to pull other equipment.  Doing so would place excessive wear on both the transmission and the diesel engine.

RDCs can be coupled together, allowing a single engineer to operate a larger train.
