In the latest Rapido adventure, Jason brings Jordan and a begrudging Janet to the Nottawasaga Model Railway for a look at our pre-production HO SW1200 models!
There is a fine line between crazy and artistic greatness. The world does not know which category Rapido falls in. Then there is just having to much fun and creating great model railroad equipment with an evil bus!
Excellent video as always, the new SW12000s look great! I might be misreading this but did someone wright my channel name on the chalkboard at 11:56? I thought that was pretty funny.
Yea that was me, i was telling my club president about your channel and he told me to write it on the chalkboard so he'd remember what to look up.. i totally forgot to take it off before the Rapido guys showed up.. lol, enjoy your cameo!
Cool model and video guys! That stalking bus sequence was epic! Janet is the only person I know that can make a rock look good by just sitting on it. Stay safe! Cheers, Danny
@@rapidotrains I hope we can persuade Rapido to do something awesome like an ALCO DL109. I have a bunch of the Proto/Walthers New Haven models, they run well but they are rather dated. I would buy New Haven, Rock Island, Milwaukee and Southern units.
Janet & Jordan & the boss and his bus, Great presentation introduction to the outstanding looking SW1200's models. Very nice looking detailed models, all version look fantastic. Just love the variety. Great work everyone! Keep up the great and fun work. Thanx Thom...
Great Video! Love those SW1200's, but I think the GMD-1's are very unique too! Ahhh...so many choices! 👍 😉 A shark fin on the roof of the bus would have been hilarious! 1:10 🤣🤣🤣
It’s so neat seeing one of your locomotive releases with rotating axle bearing caps! I absolutely love the detail despite how small it may seem! Great job overall!
I laughed out loud at Jason yelling “GET ON THE BUS!” I can’t wait for my Mo-Pac SW1200 to show up. Finally a roster gap that’ll be filled...and with those BFOT class lights too.
Good video. Beautiful looking models. I just ordered mine yesterday, even before seeing this video. Seeing this just got me more excited to receive this and weather it up. COME ON GUYS... speed it up!
Cute video. I haven't had a layout in over 30 years. The detail, casting quality and electronics are amazing but after all this time that coupler looks exactly the same as it did 30 years ago. Giant spring and goofy trip lever, and for you "Airplane" fans SURLEY there must be a better scale coupler by now.
These #5 style coupler is still the gold standard in HO, but scale couplers are becoming more popular. We are beginning to use Kadee #158 scale couplers in our freight cars though!
I want only the Rapido models... and all the rest. Any chance yer' gonna make a Money Tree, Shirley? Love the "bus"ted footage on the lawn. (I din't wanna say "on the grass." I don't smoke.) Did I mention I want all your models? Now, about the money...😓. And Janet in the sun... Hot. 😁
I wonder if Rapido is interested in future SP models. It does help having an ally in the higher ups (Jordan, please! We need T&NO PAs in the next run!) Put my name down for an E9 if you ever get around to that.
I bought one last year for 10 dollars. it's physically in good shape. It doesn't run well so I need to fix or replace the gears. I have the southern pacific.
And add to the request for TH&B locomotives GP 7 and GP 9, there are lot people that model TH&B , I have ordered everything that you have produced so far , now we need locomotives
Nice but I was expecting something like Van Halen's "Hot for Teacher" video (At least the beginning) Maybe next time. Wheres Waldo? Nice job on the Espee.
Yes I’d like that 2 Norfolk Western atlas. Now I’m going to pack up and move to Philippines but they’re coming with me oh yeah definitely and my cat is too🐈
Thanks! But we don't think we kidnapped Janet, more like "strongly encouraged" her to join us on the bus. Matt though...we flat-out kidnapped Matt: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-h1hnvTldvo8.html&ab_channel=rapidotrains
What did I just watch?! I am disappointed you did CBQ over Burlington Northern as the cascade green Units were would sell like mad for 80s BN modelers. Still I need a pair of MOW units and the CBQ ones will fit my roster nicely.
The BN cascade green units are coming too! Our website has the whole list of road names here: rapidotrains.com/products/diesel-locomotives/ho-scale-emd-sw1200
