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!

HO MLW M420 A/B Set - DCC & Sound - BC Rail (Red/White/Blue) #647, 686
-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

The Andrews truck is also a turn of the century design that was long lived. It represents one of the first steps in the development of the modern freight truck with its cast frame. The journal boxes are bolted to the main frame. This truck was used through the end of the 1950s although by that time was only used in lighter applications such as refrigerator cars. Andrews trucks are probably still used were logging railroads remain in operation.

HO Budd Coach w/HEP: VIA Rail - Current Scheme (Teal): #8110
VIA Rail HEP 1 (2020 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
- Sprung diaphragms
- Metal Macdonald-Cartier knuckle couplers

PRLX features:
All PRLX locomotives are Primed for Grime with road numberspecific patches and fading
Many of BNSFs SD75Ms were in storage by 2014-2015. The 20plus year old units were definately past their prime at this point, however, most of them still had a future. Norfolk Southern bought a total of seven units, to become NS 2800-2806. In addition, Progress Rail Leasing (PRLX) bought a large group of the units. They arrived to PRLX wearing several paint schemes, including the Santa Fe Warbonnet as well as BNSFs Heritage II paint. The units were hastily patched and placed into service, as of this writing they are leased to CN and KCS, but future leasing assignments are likely.
Primed for grime models feature:
Duplicated look and feel of -In Service- equipment, -Tattered and Torn- just like the real thing
Faded base colors matched to the prototype
Patches applied and shaped per roadnumber matching each corresponding side to the prototype

HO Slab-Side Covered Hopper - Canadian Pacific #381128
8 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.

The AC traction paired well with the long heavy coal trains CNW was pulling out of the Powder River Basin. Many of these units lasted well after the UP acquisition of CNW in their original paint or with minor patching. These early versions rode on the first iteration of the Hi-Adhesion trucks with struts on all four corners of each trucks that were both shorter and inboard of the brake cylinders compared to later variations.

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
Canadian National (CN) -Delivery 10-1978- is our first Greenville 86Ft auto parts offering in Canadian National. The CN rostered a few orders of Greenville cars, but this order for 80 cars in 1978 was the largest. The 1978 cars have body-mounted brake gear and End-of-Car Cushioning components, along with that signature 5-grab iron body that makes them stand out from any other style of 86Ft Greenville box car. Some of these cars have lasted in their original CNA brown delivery scheme for a long time - we can verify an example to at least 2016! We know this scheme is a big deal - and we thank our CN fans for their patience. We wanted to release it with the correct body grab iron details.
Weathering Pencils - Chipping Color (5/Box)
Weathering pencils are water-based pencils with 17cm semi-grease paint specially for use in modeling. Specially formulated with the most suitable basic colors to achieve all the effects in a very simple way! They are very easy to control, clean, and of course they are not toxic. It is an ideal tool both for people who want to introduce themselves in modeling and for more advanced modelers who can discover their properties in different effects.
We recommend using them on a matt surface to achieve optimal results, but thanks to their semi-fat tip, they can be used on other finishes!

Prototype Information:
In 1955, Fairbanks Morse offered a new design for their existing H16-44 Phase I/II model locomotives. These changes involved raising the walkway & simplifying the short & long hood to make construction easier. Exterior-wise the locomotives looked much like their bigger brother – the H24-66 but with 4 axles instead of 6. Under the hood the locomotives were nearly identical to the earlier phases of H16-44 except for replacing the Westinghouse Electrical System with a more reliable General Electric system.
A total of 165 of the H16-44 Phase III Locomotives were built between 1955 and 1963. Locomotives for the Canadian Pacific Railway & Canadian National Railway were built by Fairbanks Morse subsidiary Canadian Locomotive Company. A total of 58 H16-44s of were built at this plant. The last H16-44 was built for the Ferrorcarril de Chihuahua al Pacifico Railroad in 1963. This was the last Fairbanks Morse Locomotive to roll off the assembly line as the company folded the same year.

Rapido is happy to announce the next in their series of classic General Electric locomotives, the C30-7 in HO scale.
The C30-7 was General Electrics improvement of the U30C locomotive, featuring a 16-cylinder 3,000 horsepower diesel engine. Built between September 1976 and May 1986, over 1100 units were produced for many of the Class I railroads across the United States for use primarily in heavy-haul freight. A fair number would go on to have extended careers with both short/regional lines and private industrial railroads, owing to the locomotives reliability and pulling power.
It is, perhaps, the most polarizing locomotive from the 1980s and early 90s. The C30-7 was GEs answer to the SD40-2. When one thinks of Powder River and coal, the C30-7 isnt far behind. Burlington Northern owned the most in the States, with just over 240 examples. Santa Fe was a distant second with 157 C30s.
The C30-7 later gave way to the similar C36-7, as well as various unique models such as the Conrail C30-7A and the BC Rail C36-8m, rebuilt from former Conrail C30-7s.

HO MLW M420 A/B Set - DC/DCC Ready - British Columbia (Two-Tone Stripe) #644, 683
-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

Penn Central (PC) N7 Green Repaint 1975+ represents the most common scheme applied by Penn Central to the N7 class of DSI cabooses. Wearing the classic PC green colors that Tangent replicates better than anyone in the industry, these cabooses feature the large road numbers on the left side of the car and the italicized PENN CENTRAL above the cupola. The roof is black per PC practice, who also removed the running board and end ladders at the time of painting. Check out that classic PC replacement smokejack. Dont forget the bright yellow safety steps! The fully-painted interior features black seats and stove, and light green cabinets and walls which was the selected interior color. The interior is lit, as are the tiny pairs of red marker lights on each end that PC applied to these cabooses. Eagle-eyed modelers will notice the -POOL- denotation on the end doors of this caboose to denote their pool service status (i.e. they ran everywhere). Finally we round these cars out with the application of ACI labels, which was a standard PC practice for these cabooses. We offer this scheme in four prototypically-accurate road numbers.

Both of Canadas two major railways started piggyback (TOFC) services in the 1950s. By the late 60s early 70s this traffic had grown substantially and both railroads saw a need to purchase purpose-built flatcars that could handle both 26-foot and longer trailers, up to the then-new standard of 45-foot.
Canadian National placed a order for 283 cars with Vancouver Iron and Engineering Works (V.I.E.W.). Delivery on these cars started in 1966. They would continue in service well into the late 1980s, after a major rebuild in 1976 to a single hitch configuration which resulted in the cars being renumbered into the 688000?688184 series.
Canadian Pacific ordered a large batch of 305 cars from Marine Industries Limited (MIL) in 1972, which were delivered as road numbers 505625-505930. These cars would soldier on in service after several rebuilding programs. As well as the removal of second hitch, container pedestals were later added to many of the cars. A final group of cars were reconfigured for the Southern Ontario XpressWay service with rub-rails for the circus-style loading and unloading at terminals.

Acrylic Flat Colors - Flat Earth - 3/4oz (23mL) Bottle
XF-68
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.

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).

Adhesive to fix down all kinds of earth, gravel, small stones, sand, etc to your bases. This special adhesive, with an alcohol base, is much more effective than the traditional white glue. The white glue tends to leave a plastic finish over the surface giving an unreal aspect and also tends not to expand well through the material. But this new adhesive expands rapidly and is adsorbed by the stones and sand saving a lot of time when fixing down rubble for example. This product is easily cleaned using alcohol, can be applied using an airbrush or paint brush and the drying process can be accelerated with a hairdryer or any other type of heat source. Although it’s matt when it dries, on smooth surfaces it can leave a light satin mark, however, this can be removed with a matt varnish.

HO Hyundai 48ft Exterior Post - NACS (2pk)
Road #282566, #600120
PROTOTYPE TYPE:
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.

Enamel Paint - Panel Line Accent Color - Gray (40mL)
Tamiya Panel Line enamel paints are ideal for highlighting panel lines and other details to give your model a more realistic depth. The paint has been pre-diluted into the ideal viscosity and can be easily applied into crevasses such as panel lines with the brush on the bottle cap. Once dried, any excess may be cleaned up by using enamel thinner. (Bottle contains 40ml)
Examples of use:
Black is a general-purpose color and can be used for any type of model. Brown is great for military models as well as highlighting details on bright colors such as Yellow or Orange. Gray is perfect for White or Light Gray parts where Black may be too distinct.
Note:
Plastic parts may become brittle when using Tamiya Panel Line accent colors. Avoid using on movable parts and take care when applying to load-bearing areas. Apply over base coat of lacquer or acrylic paint. Accent Color paints may damage underlying base coat. Test before applying it onto the model. Take care when applying on flat base coat colors as Accent Color paints may permeate more readily.

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!

HO 40Ft Fruehauf Exterior-Post Volume Van - Western Maryland #A1401
A transport revolution started in the 1950s - the advent of the piggyback trailer. No longer was it necessary to transfer loads to and from freight cars to local trucks for shipment or delivery. Instead, the entire loaded trailer could be driven from a loading dock to a freight yard, loaded on a train, then delivered to its final destination.
For the 1955-60s era, we offer the 35Ft Fruehauf Integral-Post Volume Van with ribbed sides and rounded corners. These trailers will also be available with or without curb-side loading doors.
Our 1960s offerings include two designs; the 40Ft Fruehauf Exterior-Post Volume Van and the 40Ft Fruehauf Fluted-Side Volume Van, both with side door options where appropriate and the later in both refrigerated and dry van forms.
All of these trailers will be available in a variety of prototypical paint schemes for both railroads and private trucking companies. All schemes will be offered in three individual numbers.

PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:
Thrall was a recognizable freight car manufacturing company in the 1960s to 1980s. Their designs still carry on today. The company focused on building specialized freight cars including high side gondolas, and rotary-dump gondolas for coal. In the 1980s, Thrall acquired five competing railcar manufacturers and became the largest such manufacturer of these cars in the United States.
In the 1960s, coal haulage shifted from open hopper cars to high-sided gondolas. Using a gondola, the railroads are able to haul a larger amount of coal per car since gondolas do not include the equipment needed for unloading. However, since these cars do not have hatches for unloading the products shipped in them, railroads must use rotary car dumpers (mechanisms that hold a car against a short section of track as the car and track are slowly rotated upside down to empty the car) or other means to empty them.

Rapido is happy to announce the next in their series of classic General Electric locomotives, the C30-7 in HO scale.
The C30-7 was General Electrics improvement of the U30C locomotive, featuring a 16-cylinder 3,000 horsepower diesel engine. Built between September 1976 and May 1986, over 1100 units were produced for many of the Class I railroads across the United States for use primarily in heavy-haul freight. A fair number would go on to have extended careers with both short/regional lines and private industrial railroads, owing to the locomotives reliability and pulling power.
It is, perhaps, the most polarizing locomotive from the 1980s and early 90s. The C30-7 was GEs answer to the SD40-2. When one thinks of Powder River and coal, the C30-7 isnt far behind. Burlington Northern owned the most in the States, with just over 240 examples. Santa Fe was a distant second with 157 C30s.
The C30-7 later gave way to the similar C36-7, as well as various unique models such as the Conrail C30-7A and the BC Rail C36-8m, rebuilt from former Conrail C30-7s.

ETA: August 2021
Detailed Information
PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Built by International Car Company in 1967, UPs CA-9 class numbered 100 cabooses. The cars were very similar to the earlier CA-8 and later CA10 designs, but had minor differences in end cages and windows. The cars originally featured square safety slogans, and these were later changed to rectangular slogans. The eye-catching safety slogans made the cars distinctive; the later slogan boards were removable and could be swapped from car to car, meaning that certain road numbers wore several over the course of their lives.
ROAD NUMBER SPECIFIC FEATURES:
#25658, 25668, 25661 Early slogans, P on cupola representing Pool service,unique scheme with 14 inch reporting marks and 8-inch -Union Pacific-, as- built or modernized cupola windows as appropriate

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.

HO 30Ft Single-Track Railroad Through Girder Bridge - Kit
Product Information
This Walthers Cornerstone 30Ft Single-Track Railroad Through Girder Bridge kit is based on one of the most common North American railroad bridge designs. Its part of the Cornerstone Engineered Bridge System and is designed to be compatible with system abutments and bridge piers. Plate-girder bridges are typically used to cross short distances between 30 and 90Ft 9.1 to 30.4m. Used for many decades, this design is constructed of several steel sections riveted together to form girders. They are known as through types as the track passes between, rather than on top of the spans. Its ideal for use with WalthersTrack Code 83 Bridge Track 948-83004 or other trackage of your choice. The kit can be built either as a single- or a double-track bridge. Each includes parts for two complete spans, but the design makes it easy to combine additional kits (sold separately) to build a longer or wider bridge if needed. The plastic parts are molded in color and feature authentic rivets and other fine details.
As shown the 30Ft Single-Track Railroad Through Girder Bridge is 4-7/32 x 2-3/8 x 1inch (10.7 x 6 x 2.5cm long).

Scale: HO Scale 1:87.1
Truck: Tangent 100-Ton -Low Profile- Barber S-2-C Roller Bearing
Wheels: CNC-Machined 36inch Wheels
CSXT -Boxcar Scheme 2019+- throws a -modern era- repaint into this release mix. This Tangent model replicates the most modern incarnation of the CSXT scheme we have found yet applied to Greenville 86Ft boxcars, starting in 2019. For those keeping score, this is a former Chessie C&O 1978 car, with its 5-grab body style and body mounted brake hardware. The times, they are a-changin, and this car has an updated appearance for 2019-2020+ layouts. Notice the lack of a COTS panel on the paint job, vertical conspicuity striping, the correct placement of the large tackboard near the reporting marks, and the modification of the -third arm- layout on the left hand door. Those yellow-painted grab irons look classy! We even threw in the tiny one-inch 2020 Door inspection data patch, so we apologize to the 2019 guys for technically bumping the era forward one year. This car is ready to roll behind those CSX GEs.

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

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
Full underbody brake rigging
Separately applied door latch mechanism

Prototype Information:
In 1955, Fairbanks Morse offered a new design for their existing H16-44 Phase I/II model locomotives. These changes involved raising the walkway & simplifying the short & long hood to make construction easier. Exterior-wise the locomotives looked much like their bigger brother – the H24-66 but with 4 axles instead of 6. Under the hood the locomotives were nearly identical to the earlier phases of H16-44 except for replacing the Westinghouse Electrical System with a more reliable General Electric system.
A total of 165 of the H16-44 Phase III Locomotives were built between 1955 and 1963. Locomotives for the Canadian Pacific Railway & Canadian National Railway were built by Fairbanks Morse subsidiary Canadian Locomotive Company. A total of 58 H16-44s of were built at this plant. The last H16-44 was built for the Ferrorcarril de Chihuahua al Pacifico Railroad in 1963. This was the last Fairbanks Morse Locomotive to roll off the assembly line as the company folded the same year.

HO Budd Coach: VIA Rail - Original: #107
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
- 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
- Sprung diaphragms
- Metal Macdonald-Cartier knuckle couplers

HO GE C36-7 - DC/DCC/Sound - Union Pacific #9042 (1988 Reletter)
The Rapido Trains HO Scale C36-7 is based on General Electric's higher-horsepower six-axle Dash-7 offering, with a 16-cylinder 3,600 horsepower or 3,750 hp rating (compared to the C30-7's 3,000 hp.) Built between July 1979 and February 1989, over 599 total units were produced. Of those, 129 were domestic orders for Conrail, Missouri Pacific, Norfolk & Western, and Norfolk Southern. Another 40 were made for Ferrocarril del Pacifico and National de Mexico. Lastly, 422 were made for China with many significant export differences, and the final units produced were 8 for Comilog in Gabon. Despite smaller production numbers, the C36-7 was ordered at key moments that resulted in it representing the evolution of GE s Dash-7 line more than the popular C30-7s. When GE launched "1977 Series Locomotives" (Dash-7s) in, they cataloged a C30-7, C33-7, and C36-7. Railroads immediately ordered C30-7's for booming coal service. The C33-7 was never ordered. The C36-7 was ignored until 1979, when National de Mexico and Ferrocarril del Pacifico placed orders. These export C36-7s for Mexico were essentially identical externally to C30-7s, which were being built by the hundreds at the time. Ferrocarril del Pacifico's units were repainted into striking two-tone blue FNM paint and worked both freight and passenger service. Of the 40 C36-7s built for Mexico, only one is still in service in 2024 - Ferromex 9336. Incredibly, despite being the last operating C36-7 (among few remaining operating C30-7's) 9336 was repainted in Ferromex's classy "Diet Coke" scheme in 2023. The Rapido model features railroad and era-specific details, etched-metal grilles and details, roadname-appropriate lighting packages and Rapido semi-scale knuckle couplers on both ends. The smooth-running drive features a five-pole motor with dual flywheels, backed up with the MoPower capacitor system for uninterrupted operation. This standard DC model is DCC ready with a 21-pin interface for easy conversion. The GE C36-7 is part of the line of Rapido Trains HO Scale locomotives.

Truck: Tangent 70-Ton Barber S-2A Roller Bearing
Wheels: CNC-Machined 33inch Wheels
Release Date: August 2021
Wabash -Original 1964- 1965+ Era is one of the many -classic- 1960s schemes seen on these cars, and represents one of the last schemes the railroad wore before being merged into the Norfolk and Western! This rolling billboard features Wabashs classy dark blue scheme with large Wabash lettering, and then undoubtedly the largest Wabash flag applied to any rolling stock, adorned with the -Follow the Flag- logo. Pure class. These cars were delivered in 1964 with full running boards but were soon modified in 1965. These significant modifications included the removal of the roof running board, the lowering of the brake wheel housing and removal of high grab irons and end ladders. Our Wabash model replicates this 1965+ look with exact features: an accurate 1964-built body, bolt -remnants- on the sides and ends of the model, and a roof with the old bolt locations of the running board supports! The features go on and on, including an accurate -lowered- Miner hand brake, 1965 replacement full-width Apex crossover platforms, 70T trucks with 33inch wheels, truck-mounted brake details and rotating Brenco-6 roller bearing caps. This stunning model is available in four numbers. (Please note there is no SKU 1/2 for this production).

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!

PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:
In 1984, Electro-Motive (EMD) introduced the 60 series locomotive. These had many improvements over the earlier models including features such as: New and improved EMD 710 power plant producing 3600 HP, wheel slip control, computerized cabinet replacing the older and unreliable components.
This design spawned into many other upgrades within its class like the modernized wide cab, Isolated cab, and even the start of AC traction technology.
These locomotives were suited for just about any mainline service that could be thrown at them. The model was fairly popular with class one railroads, with Norfolk Southern purchasing the most at 151 units. Most of them are still in service today. Norfolk Southern in 2010 started a large full rebuild program of their SD60s (including purchasing cores from other sources) into SD60Es, which rebuilt them from the frame up with new electrical components and a newly designed cab to improve visibility and forward crash impact safety.

Model Wash - Olive Green - 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 Olive Green is recommended for adding shadows around rivets or recessed details on vehicles painted in Olive Green or faded Pale Green.

Tangent HO Scale G41a Coil Car Hoods Penn Central Version 2
PC Hoods 2-Pack V2 Logo (Different logo style from PC G41A Repaint 1973 RTR car)
The PRR built removable coil hoods (covers) for the Samuel Rea Shops G41A gondolas to protect the steel loads from moisture and from damage to the steel. These coil hoods were painted and included a stenciled railroad logo. Starting during the PC era, the G41A hoods received a variety of repaints where there was mixing and matching of PRR/PC (and later CR) hoods in the 1970s.

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.

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.

HO MLW M420 - DCC & Sound - British Columbia (Two-Tone Stripe) #646
-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:

HO Scale H1a Hudson Steam - DCC & Sound - Canadian Pacific (Beaver Shield) #2804
-Late walkway
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

HO Blunami BLU-PNP8 - 8 Function Bluetooth Controlled Sound Decoder - ALCO Diesels
Blunami will change the way you enjoy the model railroading hobby! The BLU-PNP8 is a universal factory board replacement sound decoder suitable for use in many manufacturers diesel models such as those made by Atlas, Athearn, and Intermountain Models. It is suitable for a wide variety of models from HO to S scale. It can be operated in three different ways: DC, DCC, and Wireless mode. Using the Blunami App, you can operate your locomotive incredibly easily.
Need Help Choosing a Sound Profile?
We have tons of sounds to match a wide range of locomotives. So many, in fact, we cannot fit them all on one decoder. Therefore, they are broken up into sound profiles of like sounds (EMD, GE, ALCO, etc.). If you do not know which sound profile you need, the best place to start is the Sound Selection References. These will list all the prime movers or exhaust chuffs available on each sound profile.
DYNAMIC DIGITAL EXHAUST :
For added realism, you will love our reactive Dynamic Digital Exhaust (DDE) feature that automatically notches your models engine up or down depending on the load on the motor. With the Blunami App, DDE calibration has never been easier. When your locomotive is traveling across flat terrain and simply maintaining speed, you will hear your locomotive chugging along. But, when the locomotive encounters a grade and the engineer applies more throttle to get the train up the hill, the engine sounds will automatically react and reflect the increase of power needed to crest the hill. DDE accomplishes this by calculating the changes in strain or load on the motor and adjusting the exhaust to appropriately simulate the work the engineer would be doing to the throttle of the engine. This gives Blunami the ability to create the most realistic experience possible.
HIGH-QUALITY SOUND LIBRARY:
Our large selection of sound effects includes:
- Up to 12 Prime Movers in each sound profile
- Up to 12 Bells
- 40+ Airhorns
- Additional couplers, cab chatter, and more!
ADDED REALISM:

HO RTR Trinity Rail 3281 Cu Ft 2-Bay Covered Hopper - CIT Group/ Capital Finance (NRLX) #34080
(Ex-Ciment Quebec, 2005, gray, yellow conspicuity marks)
Product Information
This HO Scale TrinityRail 3281 Cu.Ft. 2-Bay Covered Hopper is based on a common late-1990s and later prototype commonly used to haul frac sand, roofing granules and similar materials. With the boom in frack sand traffic it isnt uncommon to see these prototypes used in unit trains. Prototype cars measure 41ft-11inch long, and the cars are equipped with three or five round loading hatches and a pair of gravity outlets for commodity off-loading. Compared with earlier 2-bay covered hoppers, these cars are distinctive. Notably, an overhanging arched roof, heavy top reinforcement stiffener, and folded jack pads at the bolster are spotting features for the Trinity 3281. This design has proven to be popular with shippers and railroads alike. The HO scale freight car features an injection-molded body, applied wire grab irons, photo-etched walkways and working shelf-type knuckle couplers without trip pins for scale appearance. Other details include roadnumbers printed on the truck sideframes, coupler cut levers, NMRA compliant car weight, trucks with spinning bearing caps, multiple roadnumbers per scheme and graffiti on select roadnumbers.

HO MLW M420 - DC/DCC Ready - Canadian National (North American Scheme) #3576
-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

HO GE C36-7 - DC/DCC/Sound - Conrail #6621
The Rapido Trains HO Scale C36-7 is based on General Electric's higher-horsepower six-axle Dash-7 offering, with a 16-cylinder 3,600 horsepower or 3,750 hp rating (compared to the C30-7's 3,000 hp.) Built between July 1979 and February 1989, over 599 total units were produced. Of those, 129 were domestic orders for Conrail, Missouri Pacific, Norfolk & Western, and Norfolk Southern. Another 40 were made for Ferrocarril del Pacifico and National de Mexico. Lastly, 422 were made for China with many significant export differences, and the final units produced were 8 for Comilog in Gabon. Despite smaller production numbers, the C36-7 was ordered at key moments that resulted in it representing the evolution of GE s Dash-7 line more than the popular C30-7s. When GE launched "1977 Series Locomotives" (Dash-7s) in, they cataloged a C30-7, C33-7, and C36-7. Railroads immediately ordered C30-7's for booming coal service. The C33-7 was never ordered. The C36-7 was ignored until 1979, when National de Mexico and Ferrocarril del Pacifico placed orders. These export C36-7s for Mexico were essentially identical externally to C30-7s, which were being built by the hundreds at the time. Ferrocarril del Pacifico's units were repainted into striking two-tone blue FNM paint and worked both freight and passenger service. Of the 40 C36-7s built for Mexico, only one is still in service in 2024 - Ferromex 9336. Incredibly, despite being the last operating C36-7 (among few remaining operating C30-7's) 9336 was repainted in Ferromex's classy "Diet Coke" scheme in 2023. The Rapido model features railroad and era-specific details, etched-metal grilles and details, roadname-appropriate lighting packages and Rapido semi-scale knuckle couplers on both ends. The smooth-running drive features a five-pole motor with dual flywheels, backed up with the MoPower capacitor system for uninterrupted operation. This standard DC model is DCC ready with a 21-pin interface for easy conversion. The GE C36-7 is part of the line of Rapido Trains HO Scale locomotives.

Odorless Enamel Thinner - 100mL
AKI odorless turpentine is very different from their white spirit. Besides being odorless, this product is softer and less aggressive than the White Spirit. This property of the odorless thinner (Turpentine) makes it great for delicate, soft and subtle blending. This thinner is exclusive to enamel and oil paint. This larger bottle gives you more thinner and costs less when compared to buying three 35ml bottles.

In the late 1970s Amtrak acquired a fleet of second-hand GP7s which were painted in a bright orange color for use in maintenance-of-way service (MOW). These highly visible units were quickly and unofficially named -Pumpkins- by the railfan community. They were frequently spotted hauling Amtrak ballast cars, flat cars equipped with special racks to carry rail, or gondolas that were used to gather scrap steel and wooden ties that accumulated on the right-of-way. Aside from MOW use, these units were used to couple Amtrak express Roadrailers to soon-to- arrive passenger trains. Pumpkins could also be found in service on non-Amtrak rails. For example, Amtrak -Pumpkins- were involved in the rebuilding of the Doylestown branch for the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transit Authority (SEPTA), and the Atlantic City line for New Jersey Transit. This bright paint scheme with unique details such as cab mounted strobes and end mounted emergency beacons will surely be an -attention grabber- on your layout.

In 1966 EMD introduced a new line of locomotives based on the 16-cylinder 645-series prime mover. The
40-series included a six-axle and four-axle model, the latter being the GP40. A total of 1,145 units were
produced between 1966 and 1972. These turbocharged 3,000hp locomotives were used primarily in road
freight service. The GP40 was a versatile locomotive that could be found across the US hauling drag freights
over mountain passes and leading high-speed intermodal trains across flat terrain. Three rooftop radiator fans
at the rear of the long hood differentiate a GP40 from its lower horsepower counterpart, the GP38, which has
two fans at this location.
Concurrent with GP40 production, EMD offered a lower horsepower, non-turbocharged locomotive based on the
same 645-series prime mover. The four-axle GP38 was rated at 2,000 hp and had the advantage of costing less
than the GP40. A total of 727 units were produced between 1966 and 1971 when the model was superseded.
The wheelbase of the GP38 was identical to that of the GP40. Both units shared the same EMD road-switcher
style body that was introduced with the GP35 in 1963. A desire for standardization caused the GP38 to share
the same wheelbase, frame and many external components as the GP40. The GP38 was purchased by large and
small roads alike. It was routinely found in local and road freight service throughout the US. Many GP38s and
40s are still in service today, either having been rebuilt or modified. A locomotive that has withstood the test of
time.
Many options exist on the Atlas GP38 and GP40 models. Some of these are: Long hood with or without dynamic
brakes, multiple fuel tanks, high or shoot hoods, and more.

In the late 1970s Amtrak acquired a fleet of second-hand GP7s which were painted in a bright orange color for use in maintenance-of-way service (MOW). These highly visible units were quickly and unofficially named -Pumpkins- by the railfan community. They were frequently spotted hauling Amtrak ballast cars, flat cars equipped with special racks to carry rail, or gondolas that were used to gather scrap steel and wooden ties that accumulated on the right-of-way. Aside from MOW use, these units were used to couple Amtrak express Roadrailers to soon-to- arrive passenger trains. Pumpkins could also be found in service on non-Amtrak rails. For example, Amtrak -Pumpkins- were involved in the rebuilding of the Doylestown branch for the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transit Authority (SEPTA), and the Atlantic City line for New Jersey Transit. This bright paint scheme with unique details such as cab mounted strobes and end mounted emergency beacons will surely be an -attention grabber- on your layout.

Detailed Information
Union Pacific
In the spring of 1941 UP locomotive designers began working on a locomotive to team up with the new 4-8-8-4 Big Boys then under construction at Alco. The Big Boys were designed to pull heavy freights up the Wasatch Range in Utah to the division point at Green River, WY. What was needed was a locomotive to take over at that point that could speed the freights eastward across the Wyoming Division. Building on their experience with the original CSA 4-6-6-4 Challengers UP and Alcos designers developed a newer and better Challenger type locomotive. The result was a group of 65 4-6-6-4 Challenger built in three separate groups during World War II.

During the 1970s, SP went on an ambitious task to rebuild their GP9 fleet, known as the -GRIP- program. This program included new wiring, new main generator, complete rebuild of the prime mover with new parts, improved battery box doors, and removed rear light packages (in some cases). A small batch of GP9s were renumbered into the 2868-2899 class. Demoted to -switchers- in order to save maintenance costs, this class included rebuilt and non rebuilt units.
We are offering #2873, which retained its full light package on both ends. #2873 currently enjoys its retirement at a Northern California museum. It may be the last locomotives in this scheme still operating. Out of the large batch of SP GP9Es, only 9 were painted into these colors.

HO ICC B&O I-18 Steel Bay Window Caboose - Chessie System (B&O 1973+ Repaint Version 2) #C-3030
Product: ICC B&O I-18 Steel Bay Window Caboose
Scale: HO Scale 1:87.1
Truck: Tangent 70-Ton Gould Caboose Roller Bearing with separate brake beam part
Wheels: CNC-Machined 33inch Wheels
DC/DCC Lighting Features: Interior lights (Dim!), Scale-size Pyle lanterns
Chessie System (B&O) (1973+ Repaint Version 2) gives us one of the most recognizable paint schemes of all time, in a slightly different version than our first release. Starting in 1973, the B&Os DuBois, Pennsylvania, Shops applied the railroads new Chessie System graphics and yellow & blue paint to the I-18 fleet. Orange striping and a silver roof added a sharp finish for the scheme. DuBois paint details included the blue smoke jack and orange paint under the silver roof eaves. Note the -high- application of the Chessie cat logo ? so there would be enough room underneath it for the ACI label. Our -Version 2- description comes from the end paint details: On these cabooses, the B&O DuBois Shops painted the end vertical lateral running board supports silver. Our previous run of 1973 cars had these properly painted yellow. So, this translates to a neat little bit of variation for you Chessie guys. This 1973 paint scheme includes era-appropriate details like Pyle lanterns and the standard toilet dump pipe. Those four individual red reflectors on the end railings really look sharp! Lighting features include prototypically dim interior lights as well as lit Pyle lanterns.

HO VIA HEP2 Coach: VIA Rail - HEP2 Coach Scheme: #4119
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
- 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
- Sprung diaphragms
- Metal Macdonald-Cartier knuckle couplers

HO G43A Repaint 1980 Mill Gondola - Conrail (CR) #576156
Product: PRR / PC Shops G43 Class Gondola
Scale: HO Scale 1:87.1
Truck: All-New precision Tangent Scale Models 100-ton Barber S-2 Granite City foundry trucks with prototype-specific rotating bearing caps and separate brake beam part
Wheels: CNC-Machined 36inch Wheels
Conrail (CR) -G43A Repaint 1980- in the classic Conrail red paint scheme. This series represents the former PC-painted G43A series. Conrail retained the placards that were present on these original PC-painted cars from 12 years before. The Conrail reporting marks and road number are on the same three placards that PRR used, following the PC practices. Conrail then made new placards for the Conrail can opener logo and the two COTS panels, making a total of six placards on this model, on each side! The 100-Ton Barber S-2 trucks are equipped with rotating -Timken- caps and feature CR reporting marks and car number stenciling on the truck side frame, just like the prototype. This Conrail model is a true mill gondola, meaning it is not designated for coil steel loading; it has a steel floor. These Conrail mill gondolas feature details appropriate for the 1968-built car. SKUs 01 through 06 have a shop date of 5-80, while SKUs -07 through -12 feature an 8-80 shop date.
HO 40Ft Fruehauf Exterior-Post Volume Van - Silver/Unlettered
A transport revolution started in the 1950s - the advent of the piggyback trailer. No longer was it necessary to transfer loads to and from freight cars to local trucks for shipment or delivery. Instead, the entire loaded trailer could be driven from a loading dock to a freight yard, loaded on a train, then delivered to its final destination.
For the 1955-60s era, we offer the 35Ft Fruehauf Integral-Post Volume Van with ribbed sides and rounded corners. These trailers will also be available with or without curb-side loading doors.
Our 1960s offerings include two designs; the 40Ft Fruehauf Exterior-Post Volume Van and the 40Ft Fruehauf Fluted-Side Volume Van, both with side door options where appropriate and the later in both refrigerated and dry van forms.
All of these trailers will be available in a variety of prototypical paint schemes for both railroads and private trucking companies. All schemes will be offered in three individual numbers.

1946 Murty Bros. Riggers Lowbed Dock Truck - Unpainted and Resin Cast Kit
HO Hyundai 48ft Exterior Post - NACS #200443
PROTOTYPE TYPE:
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.

HO 85ft ACF Dome Lounge Coach w/lights - Union Pacific (Walter Dean) #9005
Heritage Fleet (Armour Yellow, Gray, Red)
A key part of Union Pacifics public relations programs, 48 historic passenger cars, three restored steam locomotives and an A-B-A set of E9 diesels make up the famed Heritage Fleet. Many were originally purchased for the City Streamliners, and have been carefully restored and updated to full operating condition. Today, the cars and E9s are finished in a modern Armour Yellow scheme, and the cars carry names of important cities, famous trains and key people in the railroads long history. In service, these rolling goodwill ambassadors travel system-wide and beyond, to attend a wide range of public and special events every year.
-Perfect for fan trip and excursion service
-Modern-Era UP excursion scheme
-Factory-Printed Car Names and UPP reporting marks
-Factory-installed grab irons
-Prototypically accurate window tinting
-Proto MAX(TM) metal knuckle couplers
PLEASE NOTE: As these cars are the correct prototype length and feature full underbody detail to match the prototypes, a minimum 24in radius is recommended for operation.
As UP transformed its Streamliners into Domeliners in 1955, 15 new Dome-Lounge Observations were delivered to bring up the rear of the flagship streamliners. Within a year however this proved to be a problem. The cars quickly lost their unique ends and were rebuilt as Dome-Lounges. Named for the famed UP-SP-CNW Streamliner, the prototype has its original windows and lighting for use at the end of the train.
Acrylic Flat Colors - Light Blue - 3/4oz (23mL) Bottle
XF-23
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.

PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:
The first railroad cranes relied on locomotives for positioning around the work site. Some big cranes required water tenders to power their steam boilers to operate and rotate the boom. Many of these cranes lasted into the late 1970s and 1980s before being converted to diesel. Some cranes were constructed as diesel towards the end of the steam era. Standard pulling operations for a 200 ton crane required at least 5 idler cars between the locomotive and the crane when in transit from one location to another. The reason was for more braking power as these cranes were often just as heavy, or perhaps heavier, than a single locomotive of the time.
