  • They're heeeeeere! Our much-anticipated CN GP9rms and slugs have just arrived and they'll be shipping out in the next couple of weeks!
    Join Jordan for an unboxing and overview, and then stick around to see his "technical difficulties" with the DCC system - nothing a Doctor can't fix!
    We have limited availability, so check our website or see your dealer!

    These locos have a face only a mother could love, but damn, you guys did them proud. They even SOUND heavy - love the metal handrails - quality other manufacturers should study!

      Better be heavier than the RSC14 and RS18s. Those were so light as to almost be a joke pulling wise

    I watched the credits all the way. Banana bread?? Ok, All right, all right, there are people that like it, gotta cater to all types. Next time, try rum cake.
    I remember the 1st time one of these turned up on the local freight. Wasn't sure i liked them. Specifically how the cab face was flush with the numberboards, and that space between the center-front cab windows. Then i figured it was better than scrapping, and eventually came around. Now i'm quite tempted to get a road unit, just because.
