  • The EMD GP38 is one of the most successful diesel locomotives of all time, and it's finally gotten the Rapido treatment in HO scale!
    Join project manager Matt as he puts our first decorated factory sample with all of its sound and lighting features to the test. With the order deadline coming up on June 15, this video will make you want to get those orders in!

      @@iggyjill I really want GTW GP38s. I'd take some IC late black GP38s even though they left the roster in the 90s before CN. DWP had GP38-2s but not GP38s. The only 'CN' GP38s I know of are GTW 4995 and 4996 painted in CN. I'm not sure if there are more. CN didn't purchase any GP38s new, only GP38-2s

    Very impressive and attractive looking gp38 model and I am glad that someone finally produced an original gp38 model instead of just another gp38-2 model. I am looking forward to seeing these gp38 models available in the hobby stores, I am most interested in either the B&O or Penn Central examples of this model type.
