Acrylic Flat Colors - Japanese Navy Gray - 3/4oz (23mL) Bottle
XF-12
Tamiya acrylic paints are made from water-soluble acrylic resins and are excellent for either brush painting or air-brushing. These paints can be used on styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood, plus all of the common model plastics. The paint covers well, flows smoothly and can be blended easily.
When airbrushing make sure to use any of the following Tamiya thinners: 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, 87077
X designated colors have a glossy finish while XF designated colors are flat finish.
The paint can be also thinned for airbrushing using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner. Using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner will yield faster drying results and a harder finish.
For better paint brushing results use Paint Retarder for a smoother brushstroke free finish.

Detailed Information
C&O FEATURES:
Short hood mounted bell
Forward 5-chime horn
Dynamic brakes
Tall exhaust covers
Expert approved art
Between 1955 and 1957 C&O bought 363 GP9s. These units were the backbone of the fleet, used on both road trains as well as local service. In the mid 60s C&O adopted a new simplified paint scheme with the large C&O initials on the long hood. Although the purchase of newer high horsepower units displaced many GP9s to secondary service, most of the fleet soldiered on into the mid 80s. Many units were retired in this version of C&O dress. These road numbers lasted into the mid 1980s which allow the widest range of modelers to benefit from this release.

48ft Exterior Post containers were introduced in 1986 and were a common site on nearly all double stack container trains of the later 80s, 90s, and 2000s. These containers were used for domestic freight service and were purchased by numerous railroads and freight operators in large numbers. These containers were a unique design in which the front and side container panels were supported by aluminum channel posts mounted outside of the container box to provide additional capacity space for larger pallet stacks within the container interior. The posts are a simple spotting feature for these styles of containers. Hyundai was one of a handful of manufacturers of exterior post containers, and while nearly-identical in design to one of their competitors, the additional drainage channel on the top of the container at the head end, and full-height end corner posts differentiate this container from its competitors design. Some of these containers served secondary lives for more than one operator, leading to some interesting graphic combinations over their lifespans. Changes to over-the-road length allowances for 53ft containers and trailers brought about the eventual demise of the 48ft container and a majority of them were withdrawn from service during the mid-2000s and beyond, though limited numbers still remain in service today.
FEATURES:
Hyundai Roof Configuration Version:
A unique feature of the Hyundai design was the additional water drainage channel near the front end of the container and the forward vertical framing members that extended the full height of the container. We have modeled the detail that differentiates this container from those of other manufacturers of 48ft exterior post containers.
Sharp And Accurate Paint And Lettering:
Classonemodelworks.com provides accurate paint and lettering taken from photographs of the prototype, and numbering that matches the class numbers for each operator or railroad. Our containers come with the exterior posts already painted to match the aluminum color of the prototype containers and galvanized coloring for the upper and lower structural channels.
Accurately Dimensioned:
These containers have been accurately reproduced from hand-measured field dimensions of the actual containers, right down to every visible detail. Classonemodelorks.com stands for accuracy and we strive to provide that with every model we produce.
Accurate scale Door latching Details:
Classonemodelworks.com believes in providing models that accurately depict the prototype equipment. Keeping that as our core, we are proud to provide highly-detailed cast door locking bars, latching mechanisms, door bumpers and angled bar lifter.

Rapido Trains Inc. is proud to offer not one, but two styles of Canadian piggyback trailers! A first for the industry!
The two trailers are the 26Ft Can-Car Industries Dry-Vans with and without side doors, and the 45Ft Trailmobile design trailers, also with and without side doors. The 26Ft trailers were widely used by Canadian National and Canadian Pacific for package delivery services, as well as trucking services and retail store owners. These unique trailers have the iconic ribbed sides with catchy graphics. Eventually they were phased out of service in the 1980s.
The 45Ft Trailmobile trailers arrived in Canada in the mid-1970s, almost a full decade before they launched in the US. These venerable trailers also had the option for side doors, for easier access. Much like the 26Ft trailers, CN and CP both had good quantities as well as small and large trucking services. Many wore a variety of colourful schemes, so crank up that memory machine and grab a few of these neat trailers today!

N Scale ADM Grain Elevator - Kit
Product Information
The Walthers Cornerstone ADM Concrete Grain Elevator is patterned after modern concrete elevators in use from coast to coast since the 1950s. Grain traffic touches almost every corner of the North American rail network - from the vast cornfields, wheat fields and ethanol plants of the midwest to busy waterfront export terminals, feed mills, food processors and elevators in large cities. Long trains of covered hoppers moving grain and ethanol byproducts such as DDG have become an important part of the railroad landscape. Grain traffic should touch your model railroad too! This detailed kit includes an elevator, eight storage silos, dust bins, head house and sheds for rail and trucks. Full-color ADM logos and billboard sign decal are included.
As shown the ADM Concrete Grain Elevator measures: 5-7/8 x 8-7/8 x 9inch 14.9 x 22.5 x 22.8cm. Use the ADM Concrete Grain Elevator kit with other Cornerstone N Scale industrial buildings.

Expert approved art
Between 1955 and 1957 C&O bought 363 GP9s. These units were the backbone of the fleet, used on both road trains as well as local service. In the mid 60s C&O adopted a new simplified paint scheme with the large C&O initials on the long hood. Although the purchase of newer high horsepower units displaced many GP9s to secondary service, most of the fleet soldiered on into the mid 80s. Many units were retired in this version of C&O dress. These road numbers lasted into the mid 1980s which allow the widest range of modelers to benefit from this release.

Tamiya acrylic paints are made from water-soluble acrylic resins and are excellent for either brush painting or air-brushing. These paints can be used on styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood, plus all of the common model plastics. The paint covers well, flows smoothly and can be blended easily.
When airbrushing make sure to use any of the following Tamiya thinners: 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, 87077
X designated colors have a glossy finish while XF designated colors are flat finish.
The paint can be also thinned for airbrushing using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner. Using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner will yield faster drying results and a harder finish.
For better paint brushing results use Paint Retarder for a smoother brushstroke free finish.

Tru-Color Railroad Color Acrylic Paint is a line of airbrush-ready paint accurately matched to colors used by railroads across the continent. The acrylic solvent based paint that is designed to be airbrushed directly from the bottle without thinning. The paint is designed for use on plastic models with no priming necessary, although you can use a primer if desired. Brass models must be sandblasted or treated before applying Tru-Color or the paint will not adhere properly. No additional gloss coat is necessary before applying decals to gloss or semi-gloss colors. Use acetone for airbrush cleanup, but do NOT thin Tru-Color Paint with acetone. Recommended airbrush pressure is 28 to 35psi. Not mixable with any other brands of paint, but can be sprayed over most fully cured colors from other manufacturers (experiment on a small section before proceeding).
Spray Can - NATO Brown (100mL)
This product is considered HAZARDOUS. Shipping restrictions may apply. This item may not be shipped by air.
Tamiya TS clear-coat spray is a synthetic lacquer that cures in a short period of time. The spray paint is extremely useful for painting large model surfaces. Tamiya spray paints are not affected by acrylic or enamel paints, therefore, following the painting of the entire assembly, details can be added or highlighted using enamel and/or acrylic paints.
Allow paint to fully cure before using clear coat. This will prevent the clear coat from cracking due to different cure rates from the paint underneath. For best results allow up to one week. Make sure to test clear coating over decals before applying to a finished project. Applying clear coat can harm some decals.
NOTE: TAMIYA TS paint is not designed to be used with clear Polycarbonate/LEXAN R/C body shells. The paint will flake off. For Polycarbonate applications please use Tamiya PS spray paint.

Introducing the all new N scale Pacific Car & Foundry B-100-40 boxcar from Rapido Trains Inc!
With 250 cars delivered exclusively to the Southern Pacific in 1976, these exterior-post boxcars featured a 5195-cu ft capacity, full Hydra-Cushion underframe, 12ft doors, Car Pac loaders and the iconic half-height waffle sides. Used across the SP system, these utilitarian boxcars could be seen throughout the USA and Canada. Most of the series are still in service today, many for SP successor Union Pacific and others in short line service.
Several cars from this series were purchased from the SP by Amtrak in the mid-1990s for use in express service on most trains across the system. These cars had some minor modifications including the large wheel door handle, brackets for the end of train device and struts added to the trucks for extra stability at higher speeds.
Rapido?s N Scale B-100-40 model features:
Separately applied cut levers and end ladders
Detailed Hydra-Cushion underframe

Spray Can - Dark Green JGSDF (100mL)
This product is considered HAZARDOUS. Shipping restrictions may apply. This item may not be shipped by air.
Tamiya TS clear-coat spray is a synthetic lacquer that cures in a short period of time. The spray paint is extremely useful for painting large model surfaces. Tamiya spray paints are not affected by acrylic or enamel paints, therefore, following the painting of the entire assembly, details can be added or highlighted using enamel and/or acrylic paints.
Allow paint to fully cure before using clear coat. This will prevent the clear coat from cracking due to different cure rates from the paint underneath. For best results allow up to one week. Make sure to test clear coating over decals before applying to a finished project. Applying clear coat can harm some decals.
NOTE: TAMIYA TS paint is not designed to be used with clear Polycarbonate/LEXAN R/C body shells. The paint will flake off. For Polycarbonate applications please use Tamiya PS spray paint.

BLACK TRUCKS
Beginning in the 1940s, (some maybe earlier) General Steel Castings Corporation began production of heavy-duty depressed center flatcar castings, having a carrying capacity of 125 tons. These were used to build cars for transporting oversized, high-tonnage loads such as transformers, large castings, and various pieces of machinery or machinery components. The center decks were lowered to just above rail height to provide railroads with the ability to accommodate taller loads while providing high loading ratings. These cars were single-piece castings that were sold as kits, along with GSC Commonwealth standard 3-axle trucks, to customer railroads to assemble and outfit as they required. Some railroads opted to supply F36 Buckeye trucks for use on their cars. Due to the nature of the extreme loading of these cars, dual braking systems were required with the main control valve on the B end of the car and an auxiliary control valve on the A end of the car. All of the braking hardware was installed inside the frame of the car, with exterior piping along the sides of the car for the main airline, and for the piping tying both brake systems together. Both ends of the car were fitted with an air reservoir and a hand brake, and the system provided brake shoes on all twelve wheels of the car. Based on customer orders, the cars came with a varied number and location of jacking pad styles. Some cars had square pads located over the trucks, while others had A style pads located at the upper decks end where the interior deck curvature began. Some had no jacking pads at all, yet others had square jacking pads in the same location as the A style pads. Most all railroads initially provided wooden planking, usually oak, to cover the two upper decks of the cars, but over time, as planking aged and deteriorated, some roads chose to remove it altogether and to cover the access holes in the top deck of the casting with metal grating or plates welded over the holes. The railroads, over time, also added different tie-down gear, and load abutments to the car decks, creating many one-of-a-kind variations to this versatile heavy hauler. While the original trucks were equipped with solid friction bearings, by the 1960s, most railroads began changing them out for roller bearings. Some railroads owned only one car, while others had larger fleets of cars, depending on which customers they served and the frequency with which loads were generated by those customers. Considering the many railroad mergers over the years, a large number of these cars were renumbered numerous times and wore a variety of paint liveries. Given the longevity of these cars from the 1940s through the turn of the century, and the number of specific changes each railroad made to load restraint accouterments as loads changed and requirements varied, there is an endless variety of railroad-specific variants that existed. Class One Model Works has chosen to produce the 58ft-4in version of this car with a 21ft long lower deck, the most common size, while also producing a car that will provide the appropriate body style, jacking pads, and decking variations used by each railroad, to serve as a highly-detailed car that can stand alone, or be upgraded by the modeler for the small specific details they would like to incorporate, given the timeframe of their chosen era. The first run of cars will be equipped with GSC trucks that have been upgraded to roller bearings. Future runs will provide cars with friction bearings, Buckeye trucks, and other added details as they work through the list of GSC car owners.

HO Slab-Side Covered Hopper - Canadian Pacific (CP Script) #380438
6 Hatch
Features:
Highly detailed
Prototypically accurate
Era-appropriate paint schemes and lettering
Product Information
This detailed, ready-to-run Atlas Master HO Scale Slab-Side Covered Hopper is a highly detailed model of a car that was a mainstay for hauling all kinds of granulated materials. The Atlas model of this distinctive car is available in 6, 8, and 12 hatch versions, with or without the side sill openings. The Slab-Side Covered Hopper features a detailed, injection-molded body, appropriate trucks with metal wheels, body-mounted AccuMate knuckle couplers and accurate decoration. The development of the covered hopper car for the transport of bulk commodities for the agricultural, chemical, and construction industries entered a new phase in the late 1940s, when the shops of the Canadian Pacific Railroad introduced a 70-ton, 3000 cubic foot, interior braced hopper with smooth, welded sides similar in appearance to the Canadian offset side open hoppers of the era. This -slab side- design actually maximized the interior width of the car, thereby lowering the center of gravity and improving tracking stability. Cars of this design were produced from 1950-1964 by National Steel Car Company, Canadian Car and Foundry, Marine Industries and even Montreal Locomotive Works. Over the years of production, a number of different roof hatch arrangements for product loading were available, and the openings along the side sills - an early design change made by CP to give better access to the discharge mechanisms - became standard on all cars produced after 1954. These cars were a common sight on Canadian and US rails through the late 1990s hauling grain, malt, sugar, cement, or even sand for company use.

Southern Pacific: This B-70-54 group covers SPs first order of quad door cars that were part of the GM Stamping Pool out of Cleveland, Ohio on the B&O. The scheme, of course, is simply one of the coolest paint jobs ever applied to a Greenville 86ft boxcar. Hold this car in your hand to appreciate the nuanced differences between white stenciling and SP Lettering Gray stenciling. From the huge dark gray arrows pointing to the centered SP logo, to the smallest black door handle detail, it?s all there. The SP cars feature their as-built 1970 appearance that includes Apex crossover platforms, a Universal hand brake housing (with separate long handle!) and a Universal brake wheel. SP ordered their cars with Center-Of-Car cushioning, and we have duplicated this setup, with a complete COCC underframe and draft gear. 70-Ton Trucks with 33in wheels and rotating Timken roller bearing caps finish off this replica.

All of these graffiti decal sets are now lasercut! What this means is you will no longer have to trim these decals close. You only have to cut a couple of small tabs and soak the sheet in water. As an added bonus, the decals are now printed on white decal paper making them more opaque!

PowerPack Energy Storage for LED Lighting Strip
Please note that the PowerPack 50710 is designed for use with the interior light strips only. It can NOT be used to buffer decoders!
Our current pick-ups (#50707) provide optimal electrical contact in all commercially available coaches and are easy to install: simply glue them to the underside of the bogie so that the pre-tensioned contact strips touch the inside of the wheels (wheel flange). Since each set consists of two sprung contact strips one set per axle is enough. Suitable for any axle spacing. Suitable for H0 DC and AC or N gauge. Set with 8 current pick-up contacts sufficient for 8 axles.
The new PowerPack super capacitor may be connected to our coach lighting modules 50700, 50702, 50708 and 50709 and reliably prevents any flicker in case of poor contact. Despite the fact that it is more compact than its predecessor, it has twice the capacity (0.22F/5.5V).

HO 89Ft Bethlehem Flush-Deck Flatcar - TTX WTTX #157236
Product Information
From the 1970s to the present, these WalthersProto 89Ft Bethlehem Flush-Deck Flatcars are a must for modeling trailer-on-flat-car service on your HO layout!
Designed especially for use with overhead- or side-loading cranes, these later variations of the 89Ft flatcar eliminated the deep channel sidesills that served as rub rails when trailers were driven on or off the cars. Introduced in the 1970s when 40Ft trailers were still standard, the cars were later updated to handle the bigger 45Ft trailers that came into service in the early 1980s by repositioning the hitches. These cars would remain the backbone of intermodal fleets for years, and were later put to work fitted with autoracks and specialized loading equipment where some can still be seen today. A verstaile addition to your freightcar fleet, these WalthersProto models are available in several authentic versions and feature:
Limited edition - one time run of these roadnumbers
Prototypes handled 28Ft, 40Ft, 45Ft, 48Ft & 53Ft trailers
Factory-installed grab irons

This matches the L&N order exactly. Our 100-ton Barber S-2 trucks are beige to match the body paint. This is a big scheme, and we know the Family Lines modelers have been very patient.

Tru Color Paint - Acrylic - Ontario Northland Dark Blue - 1oz
Tru-Color Railroad Color Acrylic Paint is a line of airbrush-ready paint accurately matched to colors used by railroads across the continent. The acrylic solvent based paint that is designed to be airbrushed directly from the bottle without thinning. The paint is designed for use on plastic models with no priming necessary, although you can use a primer if desired. Brass models must be sandblasted or treated before applying Tru-Color or the paint will not adhere properly. No additional gloss coat is necessary before applying decals to gloss or semi-gloss colors. Use acetone for airbrush cleanup, but do NOT thin Tru-Color Paint with acetone. Recommended airbrush pressure is 28 to 35psi. Not mixable with any other brands of paint, but can be sprayed over most fully cured colors from other manufacturers (experiment on a small section before proceeding).

HO Greenville 86ft Double Plug Door Box Car - DT&I #26759
Product: Greenville 86ft Double Plug Door Box Car
Scale: HO Scale 1:87.1
Truck: Tangent 100-Ton -Low Profile- Barber S-2-C Roller Bearing
Wheels: CNC-Machined 36inch Wheels
Release Date: August 2020 (original), August 2021 (re-release with 4 new numbers)
DTI -Original 1971- is one scheme we could not resist choosing for our first run, and for good reason. The huge DT&I lettering and compass painted on a baby blue carbody screams early 1970s greatness. The -We have the connections- logo is true, with a return route to BN in Duluth MN! Typical of Greenville builder paint schemes, the doors are not painted but left bare aluminum. This car comes equipped with ACI label and a WK routing code hand painted on the side of the car, like the prototype. While the stenciling has significant lettering variation, the small details are specific to DT&I specs, including end of car cushioning, gypsum crossover platforms, and Universal brake housing. Ah, and look closely: We even have the correct (and all-new) 100-Ton Barber S-2-C -Low Profile- trucks with Timken bearings and truck mounted brake beams. Available in 4 numbers!

VIA Rail HEP 1 (1998 to Present)
Rapido is pleased to announce the Superior Stainless Budd Coaches, as well as VIA Rail HEP1 & HEP2 Coaches, in HO Scale.
All 30 Coaches were delivered to Canadian Pacific in 1954 and 1955 and were initially numbered in the 100-series under Canadian Pacific. All but one of the original coaches were transferred to VIA Rail Canada in 1978 and, save for those damaged in derailments, are all still in use today. They form the backbone of most of VIA Rail Canadas services to this day, found not only on the busy Quebec City-Windsor corridor, but on all other services across the country, including The Canadian, Ocean, Hudson Bay and northern Quebec services.
Beginning in the late 1980s, VIA Rail upgraded its entire ex CPR Budd stainless steel fleet with Head End Power (referred to as HEP), which allowed newer locomotives to be able to heat the trains without the need for aging steam generator cars. These cars are called HEP1 cars and are typically found on long-distance trains today. Many coaches and baggage cars can also be found in intercity service on the Quebec City-Windsor corridor.
Additionally, VIA Rail began purchasing second-hand Budd cars throughout 1990s from Amtrak and other second/third/forth-hand owners to supplement its fleet and allow for expansion. These cars would be completely rebuilt as either first class VIA 1 Cars or Coaches and were called HEP2 cars. These cars contain pass-through MU (multiple unit) cables and are almost exclusively found in intercity service on the Quebec City-Windsor corridor.
Our models are based on the original, steam-heated Canadian Pacific cars. However, we have tooled new HEP2 car sides as well as both HEP1 and HEP2 car ends.
Most of the Budd cars originally purchased by Canadian Pacific, as well as those bought used by VIA Rail, continue to form an integral part of both intercity and long distance services to this day. They will no doubt find a suitable use on your model railroad too.
Each Rapido Superior Stainless Coach includes:
- Realistic stainless steel finish
- HEP2 cars feature an all-new side window arrangements
- HEP1 and HEP2 cars feature all-new end tooling with HEP receptacles and cables
- HEP1 and HEP2 cars feature working end marker lights
- Track-powered interior lighting compatible with DC and DCC layouts
- Full underbody detail including separate air, steam and electrical lines
- Separate metal grab irons, stirrups and end gates
- Accurate D22 brake equipment and piping
- Super-detailed 41-NDO-11 trucks with end frames
- Full, multi-color interior detail
- 3D CP beaver shields on CPR models

In 1976, the federal government created the Consolidated Rail Corporation (Conrail) to assume control of several bankrupt and/or financially struggling eastern railroads. Among these was the bankrupt Reading Company, whose railroad assets were sold to Conrail on April 1, 1976. Part of this acquisition was a group of 17 EMD GP7 locomotives. While several units were put to work immediately with patched numbers and logos, others were repainted into CRs medium blue scheme- although there was considerable variation from unit to unit. This group of three former Reading GP7s feature a variety of detail and artwork differences and will be right at home running with rebuilt ALCOs and other geeps during early Conrail operations.

AK Interactive 263 Wash for Wood 35mL
Enamel type wash for modeling
This product allow us bring life to the details of the wood accessories of our vehicles and complements. This wash is specially designed to be applied over the light colors of the wood, or even dark to create deep and enhance the wood.
The basic technique used to weather any type of model is the wash, a classic technique that is still one of the most used techniques in modelling today. Apply the washes after shaking the bottle with a large brush to pick out details and creating shadows. The excess of the wash can be easily removed with a clean brush and White Spirit.

HO Scale H1b Hudson Steam - DCC & Sound - Canadian Pacific (2816 Excursion) #2816
-Ditch lights, oil tender
Designed by Chief of Motive Power & Rolling Stock Henry Blane Bowen, Canadian Pacifics H1a and H1b class
4-6-4 Hudson locos were state-of-the-art steam power when delivered. A total of twenty locos were delivered
in two batches of ten each. The first batch, numbers #2800-2809, were delivered in 1929 and classified H1a. The second ten, numbers #2810-2819, were delivered in 1930 and were classified H1b. These locomotives were used on mainline passenger trains across the CPs system. So successful were they that CP used their design as the basis for its -Royal Hudsons- seven years later, which were designated as class H1c through H1d. Both classes survived intact until the end of steam, with the first retirements not coming until 1957.
Rapidos H1a/b HO scale models are based on our hugely successful Royal Hudson. We are offering several
different detail variations which allow you to model these locos at any point throughout their service life,
including the preserved #2816.
Features include:
Designed from prototype drawings and measurements
Road number specific factory applied details for each unit
Separately applied metal hand rails and grabs
Blackened wheels and driving rods
Correct cylinders and valve gear
Smooth-running drive train
Accurate and complete piping, under body and tender details
Correct coal tenders for regular service units
Correct oil tender for the post-restoration version of #2816

DCC sound version includes synchronized chuff, accurate whistles, bells, air pumps, generator,
safety valves and many other effects! (Not all sound features of DCC sound units will function
in DC mode)
Accurate paint and decoration
22inch Minimum radius
Originally one of the second batch of Hudsons delivered, Canadian Pacific H1b #2816 became a celebrity
when it was restored back to operation by CP in 2001. #2816 is the only surviving member of the H1a
or H1b classes, having originally been preserved at Steamtown in the US United States before being
purchased and restored by CP in 1998.
During its post-restoration career #2816 gained the nickname the -Empress- as it hauled excursions
across Canada and into the US. It even became a film star, garnering a leading roll in the spectacular
IMAX film -Rocky Mountain Express- in 2011.
As part of its restoration #2816 was converted to burn oil and was paired with the an original oil tender
from a Royal Hudson and it was converted to burn oil. A radio and ditch lights were fitted to bring 2816
into compliance with modern standards, and a second generator was added to help power these new
devices. Finally, a second whistle was added alongside of the stack.
Developed with the help and guidance of CPs steam restoration team, Rapidos HO scale model of
#2816 will include the correct oil tender, working ditch lights, and the additional details added to the
loco for its excursion working. The loco will be sold in a high-quality custom wood display box. It will be
a fantastic addition to any collection!
VIA RAIL (EARLY) (1978 to mid 1990s)
Rapido is pleased to announce the Superior Stainless Budd Coaches, as well as VIA Rail HEP1 & HEP2 Coaches, in HO Scale.
All 30 Coaches were delivered to Canadian Pacific in 1954 and 1955 and were initially numbered in the 100-series under Canadian Pacific. All but one of the original coaches were transferred to VIA Rail Canada in 1978 and, save for those damaged in derailments, are all still in use today. They form the backbone of most of VIA Rail Canadas services to this day, found not only on the busy Quebec City-Windsor corridor, but on all other services across the country, including The Canadian, Ocean, Hudson Bay and northern Quebec services.
Beginning in the late 1980s, VIA Rail upgraded its entire ex CPR Budd stainless steel fleet with Head End Power (referred to as HEP), which allowed newer locomotives to be able to heat the trains without the need for aging steam generator cars. These cars are called HEP1 cars and are typically found on long-distance trains today. Many coaches and baggage cars can also be found in intercity service on the Quebec City-Windsor corridor.
Additionally, VIA Rail began purchasing second-hand Budd cars throughout 1990s from Amtrak and other second/third/forth-hand owners to supplement its fleet and allow for expansion. These cars would be completely rebuilt as either first class VIA 1 Cars or Coaches and were called HEP2 cars. These cars contain pass-through MU (multiple unit) cables and are almost exclusively found in intercity service on the Quebec City-Windsor corridor.
Our models are based on the original, steam-heated Canadian Pacific cars. However, we have tooled new HEP2 car sides as well as both HEP1 and HEP2 car ends.
Most of the Budd cars originally purchased by Canadian Pacific, as well as those bought used by VIA Rail, continue to form an integral part of both intercity and long distance services to this day. They will no doubt find a suitable use on your model railroad too.
Each Rapido Superior Stainless Coach includes:
- Realistic stainless steel finish

Newly tooled 70 ton trucks with turned metal 33inch wheels
Rapido Trains Inc. is proud to announce another essential modern freight car, the Pacific Car & Foundry B-70-69/71/75 class boxcar in HO scale!
As the demand grew in the 70s for larger capacity boxcars, along with the need to replace aging 40ft cars, this series of 50ft double door boxes was produced by PC&F for the Southern Pacific and its subsidiary St. Louis Southwestern (SSW). Constructed between 1972 and 1975, these boxcars are 50ft-7inch in length with a capacity of either 5258 cu ft for standard cars, or 5119 cu ft for those equipped for DF (Damage Free) Loading. All B-70 boxcars feature Hydra-Cushion underframes and were delivered with either Youngstown or Superior doors.
Proving to be a versatile addition to the SP/SSW fleet, these boxcars were later rebuilt for Golden West Service and could be seen carrying goods across the USA, Canada, and Mexico. Many can still be seen on the rails today, whether in their original SSW or SP paint, as former Golden West cars stenciled back into SP, or under entirely new ownership.

BLACK TRUCKS
Beginning in the 1940s, (some maybe earlier) General Steel Castings Corporation began production of heavy-duty depressed center flatcar castings, having a carrying capacity of 125 tons. These were used to build cars for transporting oversized, high-tonnage loads such as transformers, large castings, and various pieces of machinery or machinery components. The center decks were lowered to just above rail height to provide railroads with the ability to accommodate taller loads while providing high loading ratings. These cars were single-piece castings that were sold as kits, along with GSC Commonwealth standard 3-axle trucks, to customer railroads to assemble and outfit as they required. Some railroads opted to supply F36 Buckeye trucks for use on their cars. Due to the nature of the extreme loading of these cars, dual braking systems were required with the main control valve on the B end of the car and an auxiliary control valve on the A end of the car. All of the braking hardware was installed inside the frame of the car, with exterior piping along the sides of the car for the main airline, and for the piping tying both brake systems together. Both ends of the car were fitted with an air reservoir and a hand brake, and the system provided brake shoes on all twelve wheels of the car. Based on customer orders, the cars came with a varied number and location of jacking pad styles. Some cars had square pads located over the trucks, while others had A style pads located at the upper decks end where the interior deck curvature began. Some had no jacking pads at all, yet others had square jacking pads in the same location as the A style pads. Most all railroads initially provided wooden planking, usually oak, to cover the two upper decks of the cars, but over time, as planking aged and deteriorated, some roads chose to remove it altogether and to cover the access holes in the top deck of the casting with metal grating or plates welded over the holes. The railroads, over time, also added different tie-down gear, and load abutments to the car decks, creating many one-of-a-kind variations to this versatile heavy hauler. While the original trucks were equipped with solid friction bearings, by the 1960s, most railroads began changing them out for roller bearings. Some railroads owned only one car, while others had larger fleets of cars, depending on which customers they served and the frequency with which loads were generated by those customers. Considering the many railroad mergers over the years, a large number of these cars were renumbered numerous times and wore a variety of paint liveries. Given the longevity of these cars from the 1940s through the turn of the century, and the number of specific changes each railroad made to load restraint accouterments as loads changed and requirements varied, there is an endless variety of railroad-specific variants that existed. Class One Model Works has chosen to produce the 58ft-4in version of this car with a 21ft long lower deck, the most common size, while also producing a car that will provide the appropriate body style, jacking pads, and decking variations used by each railroad, to serve as a highly-detailed car that can stand alone, or be upgraded by the modeler for the small specific details they would like to incorporate, given the timeframe of their chosen era. The first run of cars will be equipped with GSC trucks that have been upgraded to roller bearings. Future runs will provide cars with friction bearings, Buckeye trucks, and other added details as they work through the list of GSC car owners.

HO Whisker Metal Couplers w/Gearboxes - Medium (9/32 inch) Overset Shank (2pair)
The next evolution of model train couplers starts and ends with the Kadee Whisker series of couplers. When we set out to improve upon the venerable No.5 we knew it had to be just as game-changing as the original. We took everything you loved about the No.5 and improved upon it. No more fumbling with centering springs. No more multi-piece assemblies. The Whisker series of couplers is a true drop-in coupler. Use Kadee Whisker couplers in your next model and enjoy the most reliable and smooth coupling experience you have ever had. Always made right here in the USA with legendary Made In America quality.
The #142 is interchangeable with the #22 and most manufacturers Medium Overset OEM knuckle couplers. For a #32 equivalent use the #142 in a #252 Gearbox.
Package Includes:
- (2) Pair #142 Whisker Metal Couplers - Medium Overset Shank
- (2) Pair #242 Snap-Together Gearboxes & Lids
- (2) Spare #622 Knuckle Springs
It is not recommended to use a metal coupler directly on a metal surface or in a metal draft gearbox to avoid possible electrical crossover and shorting that may cause damage. Use the provided insulated gearbox or insulated #22 coupler.

Conrail (CR) -1988 G43B Coil Svc.- With Coil Racks ? Coils Not Included in the now-classic Conrail red paint. This series represents the former PC-painted G43B series. Conrail maintained the lettering locations that PC did, painting the Conrail reporting marks, road number, and Conrail can opener logo in the same locations PC had stenciled them. The G43B prototype features cushion draft gear, giving the model a distinctive look compared to the other G43 classes. The top chord of the car has a -COIL STEEL LOADING ONLY- stencil to remind customers and railroad officers that the car is equipped with coil racks. Our model has coil racks too, and we sell beautifully executed steel coils for this car separately. We recommend a load of four coils if you want to replicate most prototype loading patterns ? for the size of coil we created. Yes, we did the math. These Conrail coil service gondolas are offered in 12 road numbers and feature details appropriate for these 1969-built cars.

Our Legendary Liveries series seeks to explore the -what if- questions that some folks like to indulge in. Like many other railroads in the late 1950s and early 1960s Santa Fe was looking to push the envelope in locomotive horsepower by purchasing engines like EMDs 2400-horsepower SD24, Alcos 2400-horsepower RSD-15 and GEs new groundbreaking 2500-horsepower U25B in 1962. Might they have joined their western counterparts UP and SP and taken a gamble on the U50 too? We think that it looks sharp in Santa Fes dress blues.

HO Scale H1a Hudson Steam - DC/DCC Ready - Canadian Pacific (Delivery) #2800
-Early walkway w/smoke deflectors
Designed by Chief of Motive Power & Rolling Stock Henry Blane Bowen, Canadian Pacifics H1a and H1b class
4-6-4 Hudson locos were state-of-the-art steam power when delivered. A total of twenty locos were delivered
in two batches of ten each. The first batch, numbers #2800-2809, were delivered in 1929 and classified H1a. The second ten, numbers #2810-2819, were delivered in 1930 and were classified H1b. These locomotives were used on mainline passenger trains across the CPs system. So successful were they that CP used their design as the basis for its -Royal Hudsons- seven years later, which were designated as class H1c through H1d. Both classes survived intact until the end of steam, with the first retirements not coming until 1957.
Rapidos H1a/b HO scale models are based on our hugely successful Royal Hudson. We are offering several
different detail variations which allow you to model these locos at any point throughout their service life,

HO MLW M420 - DCC Ready- Ontario Southland Railway(Red/White/Blue) #646 Otter Valley Railroad Exclusive
Each model comes with a signed certificate of authenticity from CEOs of Ontario Southland and Otter Valley Railroad
-NOTE:
Preliminary artwork. Subject to change or revisions before production.
The M420 was equipped with the ALCO 12V-251c3 prime mover producing 2000 H.P. Most M420 units rode on MLW ZWT (Zero Weight- Transfer) trucks. The only exception to this were the 5 units built for the Providence & Worcester, which rode on ALCO trade-in FA trucks. The P&W required a different bolster design and different truck spacing, making them unique.
MLW constructed 103 M420s between May 1973 and February 1977 for four railways including CN (80), BCR (16 including eight B units), Ferrocarriles del Estado (2), Providence & Worcester (5).
CN would take delivery of the M420s in 3 groups: MR-20a class 2500-2529 (delivered 1973), MR-20b class 2530- 2559 (delivered 1974), and MR-20c class 2560-2579 (delivered 1976).
All of the CN units were retired by 1998 and today many of these locomotives have found second careers on short lines all over North America.
The M420 Locomotive features:
3D scanned from an actual M420. This is as close to real as
it gets!
MR-20b and MR-20c classes available in the first run
Rapidos innovative dead straight metal side handrails with

HO Scale SD30C-ECO - DCC & Sound - Canadian Pacific #5034
The SD30C-ECOs have been delivered in two batches:
the first batch was comprised of unit numbers 5000-5019 (delivered in 2013) and the second batch included units 5020-5049. (delivered in 2015/16)
All of the SD30C-ECOs were rebuilt from -donor- SD40-2s and were given brand new pilots, fuel tanks, cabs, and noses, but retained the frames, steps, and trucks of their donor units. (as well as a great deal of the internal mechanical parts) The long hoods of the donor units were cut up and some components were spliced into the rebuild construction, so the rear-most section of the long hood containing the cooling fans and angled radiator grids is all new material but the section of the long hood between the rear wall of the cab and the back of the DB blister is retained from the donor unit. This means that there are several variations of exhaust hatches and traction motor blower ducts depending on which class of SD40-2 the donor unit came from. Most units in both orders were built from Canadian donor units and have GMD ladder-style steps and end platform handrails, but there are a few units mixed into both orders that were built from American donor units and have the angled steps and handrail profile characteristic of La Grange-built SD40-2s. Despite the unit-to-unit inconsistencies owing to the varied classes of the donor units, there are (luckily) a few spotting differences that are consistent between the two batches of rebuilds.
Units 5000-5019 are not locotrol equipped and all feature a single tubular -radome- on the cab roof that encloses all antennae. (GPS, EOT, and radio) All units from this order have standard road numbers but no additional information or lettering on the cab sides. Horns are mounted on top of the conductors side of the long hood just behind the DB fans, and the bells are located under the frame on the conductors side, just ahead of the fuel tank.

VIA Rail HEP2 Coach Scheme (1996 to Present)
Rapido is pleased to announce the Superior Stainless Budd Coaches, as well as VIA Rail HEP1 & HEP2 Coaches, in HO Scale.
All 30 Coaches were delivered to Canadian Pacific in 1954 and 1955 and were initially numbered in the 100-series under Canadian Pacific. All but one of the original coaches were transferred to VIA Rail Canada in 1978 and, save for those damaged in derailments, are all still in use today. They form the backbone of most of VIA Rail Canadas services to this day, found not only on the busy Quebec City-Windsor corridor, but on all other services across the country, including The Canadian, Ocean, Hudson Bay and northern Quebec services.
Beginning in the late 1980s, VIA Rail upgraded its entire ex CPR Budd stainless steel fleet with Head End Power (referred to as HEP), which allowed newer locomotives to be able to heat the trains without the need for aging steam generator cars. These cars are called HEP1 cars and are typically found on long-distance trains today. Many coaches and baggage cars can also be found in intercity service on the Quebec City-Windsor corridor.
Additionally, VIA Rail began purchasing second-hand Budd cars throughout 1990s from Amtrak and other second/third/forth-hand owners to supplement its fleet and allow for expansion. These cars would be completely rebuilt as either first class VIA 1 Cars or Coaches and were called HEP2 cars. These cars contain pass-through MU (multiple unit) cables and are almost exclusively found in intercity service on the Quebec City-Windsor corridor.
Our models are based on the original, steam-heated Canadian Pacific cars. However, we have tooled new HEP2 car sides as well as both HEP1 and HEP2 car ends.
Most of the Budd cars originally purchased by Canadian Pacific, as well as those bought used by VIA Rail, continue to form an integral part of both intercity and long distance services to this day. They will no doubt find a suitable use on your model railroad too.
Each Rapido Superior Stainless Coach includes:
- Realistic stainless steel finish
- HEP2 cars feature an all-new side window arrangements
- HEP1 and HEP2 cars feature all-new end tooling with HEP receptacles and cables
- HEP1 and HEP2 cars feature working end marker lights
- Track-powered interior lighting compatible with DC and DCC layouts

- Super-detailed 41-NDO-11 trucks with end frames
- Full, multi-color interior detail
- 3D CP beaver shields on CPR models

The GP38. That -other- Geep youve been waiting for! At long last there is a proto-specific, dynamically detailed, Electro-Motive
General Purpose -38- class locomotive. And it only took 50 years since the last straight 38 rolled out of La Grange, Illinois. This
venerable locomotive packed 2,000 hp, low or high short hoods and paved the way for future -GP- models to follow. 706 of these
four-axle beasts were manufactured at EMDs La Grange Plant, at the heart of railroad world. Of the 706 built, Penn Central, B&O
and Southern were the largest purchasers of this model. Southerns were unique in that they continued an age-old tradition of
ordering high short hoods for added crew safety. Their eye-pleasing black, white and gold striping along with their harmonious
Nathan P horns certainly made them fan favorites.
By the 90s, many GP38s were worn down and ready for a rebuild. Many roads either sold them to leasing companies or elected
to rebuild them to Dash 2 standards, some chopping the high hoods down. With the reduction of many four-axle locomotives on
class one rosters, many of these locomotives can still be found racking up miles on regional roads and shortlines. In fact, even some
tourist and museums have GP38s!

PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:
The GP38-2 series of locomotives were some of EMD’s most successful designs. Produced from 1970s to mid 1980s the GP38-2 and GP50 were quickly found in many different tasks of the railroad. From switching to pulling high priority freight trains across country, these versatile locomotives could be seen all over North America. Many of these locomotives are now being rebuilt with ecologically sound emission control for higher population centers. A new era emerges as technology meets proven reliability for these EMD products.

Rapido Trains Inc. is pleased to bring speed to the rails with the Amtrak Rohr Turboliner in N Scale!
In the early days of Amtrak, efforts were made to improve passenger services along key corridors. Following the success of the French-built RTG Turboliners in the mid-1970s in the Midwest, Amtrak turned to Rohr Industries in California to build modernized Turboliners for use along the Empire Corridor.
Entering service starting in September 1976, these new RTL Turboliners quickly proved their value, bringing passengers back to the rails. Equipped with third-rail shoes, they operated on electric power through New Yorks Grand Central Terminal (and later Penn Station), switching to gas-turbine power once out of New York City. Painted in Amtraks stunning red, white and blue Phase III paint scheme, they operated on most Empire Corridor services, as well as regular appearances on the Adirondack to and from Montreal in the early years. Occasional equipment needs even put the Turbos on other rare adventures outside their normal call of duty, including the Niagara Rainbow to Detroit via Southwestern Ontario, and the Maple Leaf to Toronto via Niagara Falls.
After nearly 20 years of service under their belts, Amtrak selected one RTL set in 1994 to be rebuilt into what would be called the RTL-II, incorporating several improvements including new turbines, a remodelled interior, a striking new demonstrator paint scheme, in addition to extending the lifespan of the set for several more years. While this set continued in service until 2003, no other RTL-II sets were ever commissioned.
Further redevelopments and improvements of the fleet into the RTL-IIIs was never fully realized, and all were retired from active service in 2004. Conventional equipment has since been utilized on the Empire Corridor services in place of the once mighty Turboliners.

Model Wash - Dark Rust - 35ml Bottle
Model Wash is a range of washes created with a unique water-based formula. The product provides the model painter with new techniques for rendering the processes of ageing and exposure to the elements. Colors with a matt finish and of high capillarity, formulated to bring forth the minute details of the panels of the model and the contrasts produced by the wear and accumulated grime caused by operative and weather exposure. The versatility of Model Wash makes the product equally useful for a quick shading as for the creation of caked dust and dirt around the details of the model, such as rivets and panel lines. The washes are also used as a filter, applied in a uniform manner on the model to modify the base color. Model Wash can be applied by brush and airbrush and dries very quickly so that after some 20 minutes the painting or weathering process can be continued. Painting tools are cleaned with water.
SAFETY: Model Wash is not flammable, and does not contain solvents.
PACKAGING: 35 ml bottle with a flip top/eyedropper closure.
APPLICATIONS: Model Wash Dark Rust is recommended for rust effects and winter scenes, cold scenes and decay or abandoned vehicles, metallic structures or all kind of metallic parts.

HO Scale H1b Hudson Steam - DCC & Sound - Canadian Pacific (Beaver Shield) #2807
-Late walkway w/smoke deflectors
Designed by Chief of Motive Power & Rolling Stock Henry Blane Bowen, Canadian Pacifics H1a and H1b class
4-6-4 Hudson locos were state-of-the-art steam power when delivered. A total of twenty locos were delivered
in two batches of ten each. The first batch, numbers #2800-2809, were delivered in 1929 and classified H1a. The second ten, numbers #2810-2819, were delivered in 1930 and were classified H1b. These locomotives were used on mainline passenger trains across the CPs system. So successful were they that CP used their design as the basis for its -Royal Hudsons- seven years later, which were designated as class H1c through H1d.

HO Greenville 86ft Double Plug Door Box Car - Union Pacific #980306
Product: Greenville 86ft Double Plug Door Box Car
Scale: HO Scale 1:87.1
Truck: Tangent 100-Ton -Low Profile- Barber S-2-C Roller Bearing
Wheels: CNC-Machined 36inch Wheels
Release Date: October 2021
Union Pacific (UP) BF-90-5 -Delivery 1969- represents another frequently-requested paint scheme! Accurate Union Pacific armour yellow box cars are extremely rare in any scale, but here they are from Tangent Scale Models! UP ordered two different lots of Greenville auto parts box cars, and this lot was the earlier of the two orders. The prototypes were delivered with very large UP 1960s stencils ? the largest -Union Pacific Railroad-logo you will ever see, plus the largest -automated rail way- and -Cushioned Load- map logo that we very carefully recreated from the Greenvilles adaptation of the original Union Pacific plans. It is these sort of small details that Tangent pays attention to ? not all railroad graphics are consistent from car builder to car builder. Another cool stenciling thing about these cars? Like ATSF, UP has a stencil that explicitly says -Auto Parts- on the side. Return stencils are of course present on these cars: -When empty return to GTW RR Pontiac MICH.- The underframe features accurate End-of-Car Cushioning details and this UP replica rides on accurate 100-Ton -Low Profile- Barber S-2-C Roller Bearing Trucks with 36inch wheels, rotating -Hyatt- caps and truck mounted brake details. Collect all six while you can!

The GP38. That -other- Geep youve been waiting for! At long last there is a proto-specific, dynamically detailed, Electro-Motive
General Purpose -38- class locomotive. And it only took 50 years since the last straight 38 rolled out of La Grange, Illinois. This
venerable locomotive packed 2,000 hp, low or high short hoods and paved the way for future -GP- models to follow. 706 of these
four-axle beasts were manufactured at EMDs La Grange Plant, at the heart of railroad world. Of the 706 built, Penn Central, B&O
and Southern were the largest purchasers of this model. Southerns were unique in that they continued an age-old tradition of
ordering high short hoods for added crew safety. Their eye-pleasing black, white and gold striping along with their harmonious
Nathan P horns certainly made them fan favorites.
By the 90s, many GP38s were worn down and ready for a rebuild. Many roads either sold them to leasing companies or elected
to rebuild them to Dash 2 standards, some chopping the high hoods down. With the reduction of many four-axle locomotives on
class one rosters, many of these locomotives can still be found racking up miles on regional roads and shortlines. In fact, even some
tourist and museums have GP38s!
Tru Color Paint - Acrylic - CSX (Yn3) Blue - 1oz
Tru-Color Railroad Color Acrylic Paint is a line of airbrush-ready paint accurately matched to colors used by railroads across the continent. The acrylic solvent based paint that is designed to be airbrushed directly from the bottle without thinning. The paint is designed for use on plastic models with no priming necessary, although you can use a primer if desired. Brass models must be sandblasted or treated before applying Tru-Color or the paint will not adhere properly. No additional gloss coat is necessary before applying decals to gloss or semi-gloss colors. Use acetone for airbrush cleanup, but do NOT thin Tru-Color Paint with acetone. Recommended airbrush pressure is 28 to 35psi. Not mixable with any other brands of paint, but can be sprayed over most fully cured colors from other manufacturers (experiment on a small section before proceeding).

HO Slab-Side Covered Hopper (8 Hatch) - Canadian National (CN Noodle) #353637
Features:
Highly detailed
Prototypically accurate
Era-appropriate paint schemes and lettering
Product Information
This detailed, ready-to-run Atlas Master HO Scale Slab-Side Covered Hopper is a highly detailed model of a car that was a mainstay for hauling all kinds of granulated materials. The Atlas model of this distinctive car is available in 6, 8, and 12 hatch versions, with or without the side sill openings. The Slab-Side Covered Hopper features a detailed, injection-molded body, appropriate trucks with metal wheels, body-mounted AccuMate knuckle couplers and accurate decoration. The development of the covered hopper car for the transport of bulk commodities for the agricultural, chemical, and construction industries entered a new phase in the late 1940s, when the shops of the Canadian Pacific Railroad introduced a 70-ton, 3000 cubic foot, interior braced hopper with smooth, welded sides similar in appearance to the Canadian offset side open hoppers of the era. This -slab side- design actually maximized the interior width of the car, thereby lowering the center of gravity and improving tracking stability. Cars of this design were produced from 1950-1964 by National Steel Car Company, Canadian Car and Foundry, Marine Industries and even Montreal Locomotive Works. Over the years of production, a number of different roof hatch arrangements for product loading were available, and the openings along the side sills - an early design change made by CP to give better access to the discharge mechanisms - became standard on all cars produced after 1954. These cars were a common sight on Canadian and US rails through the late 1990s hauling grain, malt, sugar, cement, or even sand for company use.

Acrylic Flat Colors - Japanese Army Gray - 3/4oz (23mL) Bottle
XF-14
Tamiya acrylic paints are made from water-soluble acrylic resins and are excellent for either brush painting or air-brushing. These paints can be used on styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood, plus all of the common model plastics. The paint covers well, flows smoothly and can be blended easily.
When airbrushing make sure to use any of the following Tamiya thinners: 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, 87077
X designated colors have a glossy finish while XF designated colors are flat finish.
The paint can be also thinned for airbrushing using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner. Using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner will yield faster drying results and a harder finish.
For better paint brushing results use Paint Retarder for a smoother brushstroke free finish.

Universal Signal Control Board - All Scales Signal System
The Atlas Universal Signal Control Board is the heart of the All-Scales Signal System circuitry. This plug-and-play system supports both common-anode or common-cathode signals giving you the capability of modeling a variety of different prototypical scenarios.
- Stand Alone Operation - in this case a single signal runs independently of other signals, and displays appropriate aspects, such as red - yellow - green, in a timed manner.
- Integrated ABS Block Signaling - Connecting a number of Signal Control Boards together in a daisy chain fashion enables you to represent a prototypical block signal system, where the occupancy of the blocks ahead and behind your train determines the aspects displayed by the signals. The number of blocks is controlled by a simple jumper setting on each signal control board.
- Approach-Only Signaling - To better support prototypes whose signals do not illuminate until a train is nearby, the Signal Control Board has a setting to enable this behavior.
- Flashing Aspects - On some railroads, in order to increase the number of indications available to train crews, such as intermediate restrictions, certain flashing aspects are used. These aspects are now supported with flashing yellow and green options, and are automatically enabled for certain prototypes by a single jumper setting.
- Complex and Interlocking Signaling - In combination with our new Interlock Control Module, simple turnout indication or complex route-based signaling is possible.
- Manual Control - Full control of signal aspect for Red, Yellow, Flashing Yellow, Flashing Green (with appropriate auto return to Green) is available for those wishing to create the ultimate in CTC-like systems.

Tru Color Paint - Acrylic - Burlington Red - 1oz
Tru-Color Railroad Color Acrylic Paint is a line of airbrush-ready paint accurately matched to colors used by railroads across the continent. The acrylic solvent based paint that is designed to be airbrushed directly from the bottle without thinning. The paint is designed for use on plastic models with no priming necessary, although you can use a primer if desired. Brass models must be sandblasted or treated before applying Tru-Color or the paint will not adhere properly. No additional gloss coat is necessary before applying decals to gloss or semi-gloss colors. Use acetone for airbrush cleanup, but do NOT thin Tru-Color Paint with acetone. Recommended airbrush pressure is 28 to 35psi. Not mixable with any other brands of paint, but can be sprayed over most fully cured colors from other manufacturers (experiment on a small section before proceeding).

60Ft PS-1 Boxcar - Grand Trunk Western - BCR #383493
Beginning in the 1960s, automakers approached rail carriers with the desire for larger freight cars to transport auto parts from suppliers to manufacturing centers. In response, the 60Ft auto parts boxcar was introduced. Carrying a wide variety of auto components including engine blocks, transmissions, brake drums, and others, these cars were a fixture throughout North America for the next four decades and can still be found in service today. Often times, entire trains of auto parts and related cars could be seen near major production facilities as automakers switched to just-in-time delivery methods, requiring prompt deliveries from the railroads providing service. It was common to see trains consisting of 50Ft, 60Ft, and 86Ft boxcars, specially modified flat cars to carry lightweight chassis, and autoracks all destined for one auto or truck manufacturing facility. As the auto industry supply chains evolved and manufacturing facilities were consolidated, many of the 60Ft boxcars were used in other markets and could be found hauling a variety of goods including appliances, paper goods, cardboard, and similar items.

PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:
It was the mid 1970s, and the incentive per diem box car boom was just beginning. New, brightly painted box cars seemed to appear overnight. Many were lettered for various short lines. Pullman Standard (PS) was a significant builder of many of these cars. The 50ft outside post, non-terminating end box car, became the foundation for new per diem cars built in the 1970s. The 50ft PS cars also varied in door configuration and style to better suit each customer.
Today box cars still matter to the railroads. Even with modern containerization, box cars have a higher capacity then allowable on US roads. We are finding today, that 1970s box cars are being rebuilt and put into service for various leasing outfits. These models can still be seen today in the modern railroading scene.

In the early 1980s, CN embarked on a rebuild program in their Pointe Ste. Charles shops to extend the operating lives of the GP9s. The -GP9RM- was the result, which was divided into three groups: The 4000/4100 series were rebuilt as road units, the 7000 series as switchers and the 7200/200 series as -mother- and -slug- pairs. The slugs lacked a prime mover, instead drawing power from the mother to operate the traction motors. The long hoods were cut down and ballast added to help weigh them down.
The GP9RM fleet included a chopped short hood, addition of three coloured marker lights on both ends, the bell moved to the side of the hood and the dynamic brake blister converted to intake filters. Internally, the units had upgraded 16-645C prime movers and improved electrical systems. The 4000/4100 series road units were changed to have the short hood end designated as the front, with the control stand reoriented, while the 7000/7200 switchers retained the long hood designated as the front. As with any rebuild project, there were differences from one loco to the next as well as minor changes over the ten year rebuild program. One could see these locos all across the CN North American system.
The Rapido GP9RM represents the locomotives rebuilt from the original phase II GP9 locomotives, with details corresponding to the earliest rebuilds, right on up to the last, in 1988. The biggest variation of the slug rebuilds was the use of Blomberg and Flexicoil trucks. Both variations are represented! Starting in 1994, CN applied Belt-Pack remote control systems to the 7200/200 series locomotives. Some of these new features included extra antennas and strobe lights ? all details that will be featured on the 7200 series from Rapido!
