      He has clearly paid you to say that. No problem. We're OK with a little bribery. 🤣

    Good Job Dobby, You will fit in quite nicely with the Rapido family. Not easy doing videos. Looking forward to more of them.

    I just love the way you guys make your videos fun and entertaining. It's good to see there's still some lighthearted modellers around.
    I think a TurboTrain may be in our future....

    Will this also apply to rapido steam locomotives like the d10 and the Royal hudson in certain ways

    • @rapidotrains
      @rapidotrains  4 года назад

      Steam engines are very different. You can't snap the gearbox covers off, unfortunately.

    • @warbabyproductions
      @warbabyproductions 4 года назад

      Ok

    • @warbabyproductions
      @warbabyproductions 4 года назад

      Steam engines are probably even difficult then diesels since it has lots of detail around the shell that is really thin and could snap of and it will be hard to remove the shell. If I had to do that on my rapido steam locomotive I would probably put supper glue right next to me
