    How about Chicago and northwestern. If I remember correctly they had a nose bell. Don’t remember if they had a yellow beacon on the roof I hope they did cause I love the yellow beacons. You can never have enough lights on your locomotive.

    Very satisfied to see that a model of the original gp38 is being offered and released in ho scale, these are handsome looking diesels and I will try to purchase either the B&O or Penn Central examples of these locomotives. I look forward to seeing these emd gp38 models in the model railroad hobby stores soon.

    Definitely a must have for freight folks modeling any time from the 1970s into the early 00s. Off topic: I've noticed there hasn't been a run of RDCs since the before times. There are still a few roads yet to be covered, especially recent operators like Trinity Rail Express, TriMet, and Reading & Northern. Hoping to see another run of those before too long. My collection is at a good size right now but there's still a few things that would absolutely get me to buy: Reading & Northern RDC, Amtrak MK Rebuild FL9s, GP40TC, Metro North M-series, a PROPER P32ACDM (every Genny thus far has been a P40 or P42) for example.

    • @rapidotrains

      It may be a while until the next release of RDCs, but we'll look at doing those roads when the time comes.

  • @jackal119

    I would love the Conrail, NS and Southern but that decoder is not the one I want. Plus the detail is really good on all of Rapido trains, but travel to the club layout causes damage to them. My B36-7s lost a lot of parts. At least Rapido support is pretty dam good was able to get 99% of the missing parts. Side note here, what the difference from like a GP50 or GP60 vs this GP38?

    • @rapidotrains
      @rapidotrains  Год назад +1

      We also have these available in DC/silent versions for those who don't want DCC or would like to use a different decoder.
      In a nutshell, the GP38 was designed for light road use and switching duties while the GP50/60 were higher horsepower units originally built for mainline freight.
