Rapido Trains Inc. is a manufacturer of highly-detailed model trains. Our videos showcase our products, our real locomotive restoration efforts, and our silly antics. Enjoy!
I am fattening my wallet for these. I am eating 1 Vienna sausage a day. I will own a whole fleet. I think that Rapido Trains ought to just set up a booth at the end of my driveway so all I have to do is drive up to buy one.
noooo stop throwing my life’s dream. I’ve been drooling about these since 2016… and, and, how dare Jason tossing them like they are not special… rdc’s finally.
Most definitely a first class locomotive. Well done Rapido. I have two Royal Hudson's from the first run. They are excellent models. Definitely worth the money paid for them
If you build it, so will we😅...love it!.....now only if we could get you to come over to the dark side of the force.......1:29 scale....maybe you could do a test run of an F40 PHr2, the golden gem wish list locomotive of every G scaler every where....hint-hint❤
I can’t wait to get mine as a Christmas gift! Who could forget 2816s CPKC Final Spike Tour from Calgary 🇨🇦 through the Central 🇺🇸 and into Mexico City 🇲🇽? An amazing 3 country Cross Continental tour.
Can you please create a model of the New York Central Hudson from this model? I purchased two Broadway Limited versions and they both jerked with every revolution of the wheels. Great looking model, very poor runners. The recent release of the Bachman version is not up to par with your models either. Would love to see a Rapido version of this classic for the NYC!!
Nice looking loco, and it runs smooth. Jeremy try not to over do it, you might hurt yourself 🤣 Rapido candy bar? Let me guess... it has nuts, because a lot of nuts work there 🙄
Anything is possible, but these aren’t currently planned for a new release. I’m the meantime the team is focusing on the CNR H6 and another yet to be announced steam locomotive
I should be getting mine next week, so many hands to handle it before mine and such, I did have one question. Where is the decoder located? I’m assuming the boiler like the D10.
Dangit Boy's! (and girls), I'm still looking to get the Rapido edition of the 44Tonner and you toss this up on youtube! Hur choices now. Also Jordan is missing his hoser coat, to hold cold ones.
Are of the sound features the same across all the different model variants? I was hoping to get 2816, but I unfortunately missed out 😢 and I just wanted to make sure the sounds on the model I was able to snag are going to be the same
Looks great. Wish I could get one. But unfortunately too many other great Rapido models on pre-order right now. I hope that these come back again at a later date.
I just received my 2816. Truly amazing. Light years ahead of the first runs of Hudsons which looked great but had some considerable running issues, at least mine did. Rapido has hit its stride with recent releases... M420's, GP38's and this Hudson are great runners and lookers! Keep it up!
Yes ! N-scale please ! I'm looking to recreate the Royal Train of 1939 when King George VI and Queen Elisabeth (later the Queen Mother) visited Canada and the US. So I'd be looking for the whole rake of cars to go with the locomotive. (Family lore has it that my maternal grandmother was a telephone operator on that train for at least part of the time the Royal couple was in Canada. I have not yet been able to confirm that.)
