Rapido Trains Inc. Diesel FP9A Powered DC Only and w/DC/DCC/Sound Limited Run Expected 5/15/2010 CN placed five orders for the FP9A, taking delivery of 43 units between 1954 and 1958. Many of these locomotives are still being used today. In its heyday, the FP9A could be seen leading passenger trains across Canada and in the Northeast and Midwest states. It is truly an iconic engine of 20th-century northern railroading. Until now, if you wanted an FP9A your options were F7 models painted as FP9As or, worse, FP7 models with an added detail or two and passed off as FP9As. Our new True North Locomotives FP9A is being tooled from the start as an FP9A. That means it will have all of the correct details for all five orders of CN¹s locomotives, from the fuel tanks to the end doors, from the 36" or 48" fans to the correct number of pipes in the roof-mounted cooling coils. Grab irons, bell, headlight style, winterization hatch and other details will be correctly placed at the factory for each road number and era. That¹s right our FP9A will have road number specific details! This kind of accuracy was only available in brass... until now. No stand-ins. No stretches. No fakes. The True North Locomotives FP9A. The first product in the True North Locomotives lineup, the FP9A, features: The True North FP9A is a team effort and a labour of love from a bunch of CN and VIA fanatics Newly redesigned motor and gears for smooth slow-speed operation.
