So Jason looked around and said "what else can we
do in Long Island?" Darren Altbaum, owner of True
Line Trains and fellow tennant of 445 Edgeley
Boulevard, said "our HO scale C-Liner was owned by
Long Island." Jason very politely asked, "can we
borrow it?" And, happily, Darren agreed.
Thus Rapido Express was born.
We have leased Darren's tooling for the
Fairbanks-Morse C-liner locomotive, and we're
making some modifications to it in order to bring
you an almost-new model of this unique
locomotive.
The Rapido Express HO scale 5-Axle C-Liner will
feature all new artwork and decoration with correct
side grilles and fans. It will also feature added
road specific details such as grab irons and horns.
As an Express model based on existing tooling, it
will not have the same insane level of
prototype-specific detail as our all-new FP9, but
it will be better than a kick in the teeth.
Sound-equipped units will utilize Soundtrax Tsunami
decoders. All locomotives will feature all-wheel
pick up and drive as well as Rapido's new 5-pole
motor for smooth operation and superior pulling
power.
The first releases in this series will be the HO
scale 5 axle CPA20-5 and CPA24-5 locomotives for
the Long Island Railroad and the New Haven. These
locomotives will be produced strictly to order so
get your reservations in by December 15, 2010!
If they are successful, we have other paint schemes
planned.
