It’ll be really cool to see this in L&N colors

[@Mike-fx1eu]

New layout looks good. I hope some work gets done there after it’s finished. Check from time to time to see if Jason is trapped underneath it! Those FAs look awesome, my wallet is losing weight as I type. That NH McGinnis is a heart breaker!

[@rottenroads1982]

Alco FA/FB diesels are one of my favorite cab units. I mean, all cab units are great. Also, If it's possible, maybe Rapido could do Fairbanks Morse Erie Built & C-liner locomotives.

[@BaltimoreAndOhioRR]

Awesome!

[@J3scribe]

244s always sounded like they needed lube. Which they did.
Very cool models. You guys rock!

[@rapidotrains]

Thanks! We do what we can!

[@randydobson1863]

Hi Jordan & it''s is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks Jordan & Friends Randy

[@rapidotrains]

Thanks Randy!

[@chrislongbeard]

These are probably last HO purchased since no layout for now.
And patiently waiting for used FA units so I can make some LIRR power cars

[@Edyth_Hedd]

Very cool! Thanks for doing the two NH schemes!

[@rapidotrains]

It's what we do!

[@trainglen22]

Beautiful!

[@rapidotrains]

Thanks!

[@mels1811]

Brilliant video

[@rapidotrains]

Thanks!

[@Greatdome99]

When are you going to do SP&S FBs? You missed last run for some reason.

[@DCCSodor2]

Definitely need to grab one of those UP sets!

[@rapidotrains]

They're soooo pretty!

[@dff19707]

Seaboard Air Line FA1s, please.

[@ventdebronze6212]

J'aimais bien le son de la sonnerie avant le lancement du moteur diesel. Il a disparue depuis la dernière vidéo ou cela dépend des compagnies ?
Je prendrais quand même un set Union Pacific A/B !

[@mamarussellthepie3995]

Epic! 🫵😎👍

[@rapidotrains]

Thank you!

[@thebrantfordrailfan]

Any word on those CNR H6 locomotives?

[@rapidotrains]

Not yet! We've yet to crunch the numbers. Should know by next week.

[@James-Railyard]

Will Reading 305 have the rebuilt look it had after shop time in 1958 or will it match the rest of the units?

[@stoveapple]

I may make an order for the Erie but when are you going to do the CTA 3200 series cars

[@kcsthebetterway]

Fussball! I want to play!😮

[@rapidotrains]

It's collecting dust, and not just because we're building a layout!

[@shnorth888]

Any chance rapido might do the as deliverd CN bronze gold and green and the CN 1960s noodle and stripes livery?

[@bwan13]

While I want them to do the bronze gold and green too, I asked about that for the FA-2s and was told no because that scheme was being phased out, lasting only 2 years. I'm assuming that's also the case with the FA-1s

[@mattomon1045]

Where is the G E demo unit?

[@Vzw-dj9rf]

Ooooo, cool.

[@rapidotrains]

We think so too!

[@RFMCabooseNP1713]

Cool.

[@rapidotrains]

Thanks!

[@trainguy93]

Will these models work with a Bachmann EZ Command Plus controller? I'm starting new in the world of DCC.

[@rapidotrains]

For sure! Just keep in mind that you can't change CVs with the EZ Command, and you can only program two-digit addresses. We recommend stepping up to a more advanced system whenever you're comfortable.

[@trainguy93]

@@rapidotrains thank you for replying :)

[@Paul-r2u3e]

Can I purchase just a B unit?

[@rapidotrains]

Not in this run!

[@plaws0]

Lunatics.

[@rapidotrains]

We resemble that comment!

[@CSXrailfan814]

That's a weird looking N scale RDC.

[@rapidotrains]

You need to squint a bit.

[@CSXrailfan814]

@@rapidotrains oh, my bad. Now it looks better.
