Unboxing & Running the Rapido Trains APT-E

It's been less than two years since Rapido announced the iconic APT-E. In that time it's been designed, developed, tested, manufactured and shipped to my door. If only other manufacturers could manage timescales as quick as that!
It's a fantastic piece of kit even though its doesn't fit the era of my layout. Very happy I placed an order back in 2014.
