M-497 «Black Beetle» (с англ. — «чёрный жук») — экспериментальный самоходный вагон-лаборатория на реактивной тяге, построенный Нью-Йоркской центральной железнодорожной корпорацией[англ.] в 1966 году.

The M-497 Experimental Jet Train - Youtube. 16mm film from the Camera of Emery Gulash - In 1966, New York Central Railroad engineer Don Wetzel and his team boarded a specially modified Buddliner rail-car.

Вагон был переоборудован из обычной дизельной мотрисы Budd RDC[англ.]: дизельный двигатель и передача были сняты, а на крыше были установлены два выработавших свой лётный ресурс реактивных двигателя General Electric J47-19, прежде использовавшихся на бомбардировщике Convair B-36; на переднюю часть вагона был установлен обтекатель.

Вагон использовался для ходовых испытаний на железнодорожной линии между городами Батлер, штат Индиана, и Страйкер, штат Огайо, которая была выбрана из-за прямого маршрута и хорошего состояния и специально для этих испытаний не реконструировалась. В ходе испытаний достигнута максимальная скорость 296 км/ч, что до сегодняшнего дня[когда?] остаётся рекордом в США[1][2].

Благодаря этим испытаниям были собраны ценные данные о поведении обычных рельсовых экипажей на обычных путях при высоких скоростях движения. Несмотря на зрелищность и относительно невысокую стоимость (за счёт использования серийного вагона в качестве основы), проект не был сочтён коммерчески оправданным. Реактивные двигатели были сняты, и вагон вернулся в обычную эксплуатацию, которая продолжалась до его списания в 1984 году[1][2].

В массовой культуре

Анимированное изображение автомотрисы используется в некоторых любительских видеороликах фанатов интернет-сайта «Упячка», на которых двигатели снабжены излучателями с надписью GSOM («пыщь»).
