The face of the Fleet of the Future is the D car.

These cars share similaries with the C cars, in that they can run as lead, trailing, and mid-train cars. However, they lack the flipper doors of their older counterparts.

The first 4 D cars, 3001-3004 were prototypes, in a similar vein to the original Rohr Prototypes of days of yore. They were not replaced, but rather modded extensively, and run in revenue service.

Production cars 3005-onwards were also built in the same site in Plattsburgh, NY, and some in Pittsburg, CA.

Production Years:
All numbers are rough estimates, given various gaps in car onboarding process. There is some overlap

Operations

D cars can operate like C cars, in that they can be both lead/trail cars, or mid cars. However, there is no passenger pass-through on midtrain D cars, unlike the C cars.
