Its amazing how much detail you can squeeze on to a model these days. Also you guys put a lot of effort into them and still have time to make movies and have fun, crazy. I'm a bit to far away to help repair locos, but dam it would be an honor! Edit: fixed spelling errors.
Hilarious and I thought I was the only model railroader who's also a Star Trek nerd. I love it, "When I'm not sleeping in the front of the office when Jason's not looking" and Roslyn the Borg Queen, love it. 🤣 . You guys are great, with some of the best model railroad models on the planet. Thanks guys for the tour and I really like that rotary phone on Jason's desk, our family had a similar one when I was a kid. If you're ever looking for a new N scale project, how about a GE U28B (with the U25B carbody and slanted low hood) in P&LE paint? Oh yeah, the Southern Pacific, Rock Island and Milwaukee Road had them too, but I think the P&LE's were the first ones built and they looked sweet in the "New Image" paint scheme 😉 Cheers, Rich S.
These are for sure the guys I want designing and manufacturing my scale trains. Best scale realism and quality money can buy, bar none. See you Hosers later. Thanks for the cool video!!!!! Good Day.
I just purchased one of your FP-7 locomotives! I chose Rapido over the Athearn version, well because Rapido just has a better product. Plus Rapido passenger coaches seems to track better.
Thanks! We are doing more British stuff with our partners in the UK but we're not bringing out our own UK models until the political situation calms down in the UK.
I'm not sure what scares me more ... that I could actually imagine myself fixing model trains for a living or that I knew full well that that was a cyberman's head in Jason's' office. :-)
You guys crack me up. You must have a serious moment, otherwise none of those incredibly detailed models would get off the drawing board, aka: computer
Why did it take me this long to realize you had the LRC cars behind an FL9? Maybe if you guys save 484 out of Orford Express you can see this in real life (please save 484, we can't lose any more FL9s)
Mr President you need a boxed set of Dr Who to catch up on stuff that matters !......another cracking video by the way ! and when are you going to do the SP Krauss Maffei,s
Did anyone else catch the Flux Capacitor sitting on the shelf in the hall? Hey, if you guys ever want to open a branch South-of-the-Border, with a former Amtrak and CSX railroader, I'm down Buckeye way. We've got a few of your FPA's on the Cuyahoga Valley, eh. And Northeast Ohio is big time Rush territory!
@@rapidotrains yes just one thing on the 2860 and 2839 there's no second whistle on the engineer otherwise I'm very happy watching videos of the locomotive
Nah, it was just a mistake because the guy doing the video (me) is not the project manager. I made a note in the description. I'll add a note in the video itself. -Jason
@@rapidotrains No prob Jason. Keep up the good work. We know you know who made it. Just wanted to keep you on your toes. Oh and you need to make more cabins by the way. It seems CP Rail had a lot of em.
Jordan, I am so glad you guys are doing the GE B36-7's! I made this video from 1987 of the Seaboard System tote boats at Emison in Southwest Indiana. Yours will look great on my tote train on the layout. I have 2 ordered! ua-cam.com/video/4EvS2apVp0I/v-deo.html
@@rapidotrains I was worried Jason might have lost the company on a hockey bet or something. I assume that is a normal way for Canadian companies to change hands.
Hey Jordan smith, ceo and president of rapido trains. Please do me a favour and tell that Jason guy that I am skilled with model train repairs, love to learn and willing to do what it takes to become part of the rapido family. What’s that? Locate to Toronto. That can happen. Sadly though other times I applied I never heard back, so I’m stuck here on the Kingston sub devision here in Belleville still looking for a long term career. So sad. Lol. Great vid. Check out my UA-cam. Long over due for a new vid, but still into... trains!
Best use of my last GB of data for the month.
Lol

"That's my bus!" - an argument frequently heard in the Rapido office.
It's like you've been here....

Not a bad idea....
Press 8 for a preview of Star Trek Picard.
Man that was amazing..... 🖖🏼
If the real company is anything like the video then it must be a truly magical place to work. 😀
Thanks! Apart from some of the more extreme hijinks, it is a pretty accurate representation. It is a fun place to work.
Wow! I wish I had to design on 3d for you, seems a great place to work haha great video! 😁
That song is going to be stuck in my head lol!!!
It is almost completely awful... 😆
rapidotrains LOL!!!
@@rapidotrains what is it? Im a big nut for awful music. If you say Darude Sandstorm I will send my application almost immediately
Love the welcome back Kotter reference at the end! Y’all have a great sense humor. 😂
Thanks for watching until the end and for the kind words!
These are for sure the guys I want designing and manufacturing my scale trains. Best scale realism and quality money can buy, bar none. See you Hosers later. Thanks for the cool video!!!!! Good Day.

You guys always look like you’re having a lot of fun! 🙂 Any plans for anything new British outline in OO in the near future?
Thanks! We are doing more British stuff with our partners in the UK but we're not bringing out our own UK models until the political situation calms down in the UK.
By the way, lystra didn't actually quit. She's in another (newer) video.
She's still a key member of the team!
Did you kick Jason out of lead manager 😂
When is the next run of lrc's supposed to come out
HO LRCs will be here late 2019 or early 2020.
Jason, Rapidoworld is extraordinary! Regards Stephen.
Thanks!
You are welcome. Regards Stephen.
Excellent tour! I enjoyed watching this. By the way, you all should be careful with that Dalek! They tend to have an attitude sometimes!
It's the new HR manager...
I'm not sure what scares me more ... that I could actually imagine myself fixing model trains for a living or that I knew full well that that was a cyberman's head in Jason's' office. :-)
Uh... I moved my head from home so now there are TWO Cyber heads in my office... -Jason 😆
@@rapidotrains I think you should name them Grab Iron and Handles. :-)
I love the humor in this video
Thanks!
Great video, and really funny!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Any news on the Birmingham buses?
Production has begun. We'll be sending out a newsletter in August.
I'm still waiting on my yellow nose EP 5s., l love the ldea of purchasing 2 units
Rest assured it'll be sent out to you as soon as possible.
You guys crack me up. You must have a serious moment, otherwise none of those incredibly detailed models would get off the drawing board,
aka: computer
Occasionally... 😄
I realized Jason is looking at the comments... he needs a raise and some brass LRCs
How about a Turbo with working doors and steps?
rapidotrains now your talking the good stuff, with all lights possible for the model?
sigh....alright @3:38 broke me. I didn't plan to get it...but help me wallet take my money!!! (made my reservation)
Alright, that's awesome! 😄
Glad to see Horshack made something of himself...
Hey Ma! Somebody noticed me! 😆
I would be very interested to know if you are making HO RDC’s how difficult is it to convert spec’s to produce N scale RDC’s??
We have received many requests. We are considering it...
Very cool
Thanks!
Why did it take me this long to realize you had the LRC cars behind an FL9? Maybe if you guys save 484 out of Orford Express you can see this in real life (please save 484, we can't lose any more FL9s)
We have enough trouble paying for our current cars, but we hope that the FL9 will be preserved.
Right on!!!
Mr President you need a boxed set of Dr Who to catch up on stuff that matters !......another cracking video by the way ! and when are you going to do the SP Krauss Maffei,s
Jordan needs a serious Time Lord education. No Krauss Maffeis from us. Two railroads, 21 units, and about 50 different body styles.... 🤦🏻♂️
@@rapidotrains shame never mind just keep them Alco,s coming !
Hi Jordan know your at the 6520 unveiling today can you tell us what scheme it's painted in ?
Lovely Noodle.
I’d kill to work for them but being assimilated by the borg and cybermen at the same time doesn’t sound like a good idea
You'll get better.... 😆
Alright that’s awesome.
😂
3:57..... Are those..... Are those F59PH's on that back shelf?
We know NUUUTHINK. 😂
SHSHHSSHSHSHSHHHHHHH our little secret.... don't tell Jason that Jordan exposed a secret.....
If that is the case, man! My previous fleet are shaking in their trucks!
I'm up here trying to freeze frame to see if that is an F59-PH. If that's the case one is already on deck before an announcement!
Will the 1200 be in undec. N Scale DCC?
At this time we don't have plans to offer an SW1200 in N scale. We'll keep it in mind for the future however.
What a bunch of crazy Canucks!! LOL!
Yeah we're hoseheads, eh?
THAT ROOM WAS IN TOUGH TRAINS!!!
This was the one from Mighty Trains: ua-cam.com/video/YjMnWdIWjWs/v-deo.html

Thanks! We're all New World Men here at Rapido. Even Janet...
Mohan goes for the Oscar!
That will go nicely with his Golden Globe. 🤣
Where did you find the Cyberman and Silurian props?!
They were made by various fans who are very talented. The Silurian was made in Australia and the Cyberman was made in the UK.
🙌🙌 😀😀 👌👌 🖖🖖 to all, and to all a good night!
Peace and long life...
1:34.what type are Those fingo pops in the right of the screen
Cool great can you guys doing update on the icons of Canadian Steam
D10 and H-6-g are next. Have you seen the Royal Hudson?
@@rapidotrains yes just one thing on the 2860 and 2839 there's no second whistle on the engineer otherwise I'm very happy watching videos of the locomotive
I think you could do with an Australian employee.
6:49 Leslie RS3LR**
D'oh! Thanks for noticing! We will make sure the manual is correct... 🤦🏻♂️
By the way, what happened to Gareth? Did he head back to the land of fog and James Bond?
He went to work for a UK manufacturer, Accurascale, and they are making some amazing stuff.
That poor Excelsior Class, don't let the cube get you!
They've all been assimilated. Sorry.
@@rapidotrains didn't put up much of a resistance then XD
The main problem with Borg is their one track mind. Assimilate
Sweet
I'd be ordering shoes if I worked there to.
😂
I thought I was watching office space but what do I know
🤣
Nathan RS3LR?! Trolling or just typo? Wonder which is the truth? Its Leslie if you didn't get the snarky comment.
Nah, it was just a mistake because the guy doing the video (me) is not the project manager. I made a note in the description. I'll add a note in the video itself. -Jason
@@rapidotrains No prob Jason. Keep up the good work. We know you know who made it. Just wanted to keep you on your toes. Oh and you need to make more cabins by the way. It seems CP Rail had a lot of em.
(Oh and more New Jersey Transit and Conrail, yes I know I am asking for alot)
Thanks for your understanding!
Can we get F40PH-2d and 3d in the MTA and the recent MBTA
Maybe at some point!
This stuff happens every day eh?
Surprised the office hasn't burnt down!
It has. This is office #3.... 😆
Hojalá algún día hagan la ALCO rsd12
I would never get any work done there.
We'd be hard-pressed to say that we actually get any work done some days...
@@rapidotrains Oh... well then.... if it's a light workload with pay... I'M IN!!!! And I'll bring my own toys and collectibles!!!!
So Daleks are now slowly replacing Rapido trains. Next they'll be trains with Exterminate as horns
Erm... We may have done that already. 😆
Fab
Thanks!

MAN OH MAN! That was a fabulous video!
Please press 8 for a preview of Picard.
Oh man was that an awesome preview....... 🖖🏼
What happened to Jason? He used to be CEO
Jordan has been "claiming" that title for some years now....
@@rapidotrains I was worried Jason might have lost the company on a hockey bet or something. I assume that is a normal way for Canadian companies to change hands.
Surely someone should buy Jason a large monitor for his desk?! Doesn't he realise he can plug his laptop into it? ;-)
Good point...
Don’t stop being weird. 🇨🇦🇨🇳🇺🇸🤪
Thanks!
can I join you
Keep an eye on our newsletter for future job openings!
when I am 20 I will come
So, are we really going to sit back and act like they didn't leave little hidden treasures in each scene?
Nothing to see here. Please move along.
2:55 IS THAT A PENDOLINO I SEE
Yes, yes it is.
Interesting
If you can't have fun at work, then why do it?
Absolutely!
Also can you Make via rail rs-11 8558
8558 is an RS-10 and we do plan to make it.
@@rapidotrains MAKE IT HO
Rapido, please make the cp and via e8a
hmmm... 9:50 He's in the dark about eating chips, eh? Interesting.
Indeed. We are... confused.
Is Jordan really pres and ceo or is he just screwing around?
Web page says he is Warehouse Manager, Customer Service Representative
Jordan *thinks* he's the president... 😆
FRIST.also did you made new Amtrak lrc coach
We are making it: www.rapidotrains.com/products/n-scale/passenger-cars/n-scale-lrc-coaches
