What a bummer. I don't understand why people damage things like this.

It was a fun visit in Scottsdale tonight! It was a treat to meet you guys and it was cool talking trains (and Crown buses 😉👍) with you, Jason. And thanks to Jordan too, for answering all of our questions. If you guys can ever make it back to Arizona, I'm there!

Sorry to hear about the bus, Guys! Good Luck and Drive Safely

It was good to meet you gentlemen in Scottsdale this evening. Talking model trains, never gets old.

I'm really sorry to hear that the bus was vandalized. Not fair... I hope the trip is still a good one. Really sorry guys...

Sorry, hard to imagine why someone would do such a thing. Hope your tour is the best ever, be safe.

Oh no! I hope they find the hoser who hosed you guys! Hopefully y'all can make it to Denver on the next bus tour! Stay safe and have fun! And take lots of breaks to stretch your legs! First!

So sorry to hear about this horrific situation. I hope the bus gets up and running as soon as possible. As an aside, i drove it when it was numbered 738 at Golden Gate Transit, and I currently own one of its younger siblings, albeit a T8H-5307A.

You guys should bring that bus to Milford, New York. Touch a Train day at Cooperstown Charlotte valley railroad. August 3rd 2024.

Not stopping you. That's great! Have a wonderful time!

Just posting to ask if the minivan will be made in N scale?????! HELLLLLLP!

Roll Uuuuup! Roll up for the minivan tour! The Rapido Trains Mini-van tour is waiting to take you away!

That SUCKS. I'm so sorry for you guys. And a suburban New Look at that ... damit

Thanks for the Windsor plug Jordan... Hope you guys have a safe trip...

Man, thats brutal, guys! Safe travels!

Oh crap and in California of all places. It’s going to cost more money to fix it in Cali than any other state. Good luck on the rest of the trip! I had the pleasure of meeting the Rapido team last year at The Springfield show. Highly recommend anyone close to one of the stops to meet the team. You won’t regret it. More Seaboard System B36-7’s please. 😉

hello Jordan & it's is Randy and i like yours video is cool & Thanks Jordan & Friends Randy

Best wishes with the engine work!!

I am hoping that some day Rapido Trains will do a tour on the west coast again but with the bus in it's full glory.

It was great to meet Jason and the Rapido crew here at Dreamliner Bus Leasing & Services here in Perris, California. Owner, Loren Joplin, and myself worked tirelessly to try and repair the damage done by the sabateur in Montebello. kzfaq.info/sun/PL9HVGkM-tNZFUopB1Yu06AtjQ1VipSewm&si=-eINZj1KAmF8XuRb😊

Aw, bummer! Hope you still have a great tour and I'll still try to pop by and say hello in Flint!

****** First thing we’re going to do when we get the coach back is inspect every flexible air intake hose between the air cleaner and the engine. If any are defective they should be replaced before it moves an inch.

Golly, the nerve of some people that would go that far to do such a thing to your bus! It's very unfortunate that that happened! But other then that I hope the engine gets fixed and you guys have safe travels to Chicago!

I feel for you guys. That's going to be an expensive fix for the Rapido gang but at least you have a Pacifica to go between the sites.

I am so sorry for you guys, what a bummer.. You definitely have something on your hands there to be proud of. I am sorry that you wont be able to showcase her as you had planned. Hoping you all will still be able to make the Flint Stop, if no, totally understand. Might Be a good excuse to Drive her across a bridge or an under the water tunnel to get back into the mitten sometime at a later date. Please say hello to my cousin Crazy Jimmy if you happen across him whilst there in California. Safe travels. Keep the sunny side up and the rubber side down! ~B. Kelly

You guys are awesome no matter what you drive!

Aww man, huge bummer on the engine, but man the bus looks beautiful!

I'm sorry to hear this!

I used to ride those old GO buses to school every day. That one would have still been in service when I was a kid, they started replacing them in my early teens.

Pride of Windsor! Yes.

Fingers crossed that I will meet you all again near KC on Saturday!

That stinks to replace the engine on the bus.

See you in Belen!

As an American, I am very sorry that you encountered someone that ruined your bus. Hopefully you can get that problem sorted out in some fashion.

Sorry to hear, safe travels!

Wow, what awful news for the bus. You guys must be devastated. What a stupid 😢 thing for someone to do, sand.

Where's Janet?

Bummer

Look on the bright side, at least the van will be more reliable, and you’ll get better mileage per gallon.

Sorry someone would do that. Bring it back by train and get it fixed here 🇨🇦.

Sorry to hear that guys. ☹️ Well... On the bright side, you're gonna save a boat load on fuel cost. 😅

Where can I see the tour schedule? I'm hopping with United all week. Like to pick up a sample and talk "HO Scale bulldozers".

I feel gutted for you guys, that’s awful… 😢

Didn't the paint shop keep it locked up inside a building? I hope the police were called. Good luck on your trip.

It is sad that someone would do that to someone's property.

Man, that suuuuucks! I was really looking forward to seeing that thing in KC! Hhhhh…

Quote from my buddy Brian Kimmel from First National Financial circa 2010 "when I see a man driving a mini-van, I see a man who has given up." Don't give up!

Terrible news guys. If you can make it to St Louis let me know. Santa Fe Railroaders

Unrelated question, but do you guys accept custom orders for your model trains?

are u guys gonna make the new vial rail lcomotives they launched?

I wish I could have gone to La but I have school and I’m so close too I live in Anaheim. I’m so sad

It was vandalized in California, or it took that long for the engine to fail?

Replaced or in frame rebuild? Those Detroits are hard to kill.

Where and when are you going to be in the Chicagoland area

Well, shucks. Since it was in the care of a shop, will their insurance be footing the bill?

I feel awful someone did that. Hope it's covered by insurance

Very sorry to hear you have experienced the very worst America has to offer. I am disgusted by such behavior and apologize. What is wrong with us?

That's a big bummer indeed. What about touring with 3380 and travel westward instead??

Hey rapido, when are you going to make the CTA 3200 series cars

Well that sucks. Sorry to hear of your mechanical misfortune. (Now you need to figure out which of the Rapidoheads REALLY didn't want to go international on a GM bus.)

I want one of these but as a Shorty Bus

A Chrysler? Good luck, you'll need it

Moment of silence for the Detroit 😢

i hope you are kidding about someone putting sand in the fuel tank.

Wichita, Kansas?

People can be such ass holes. Sorry someone had the nerve to sabotage the bus engine. Whoever does the repairs have them Make sure the oil bath air filters are not contaminated too

Why don't you use your rdc

So sad because this was the bus that was fixing to make me leave the house and fight LA traffic. Now you guys might be cool but not that cool. There were other issues but the was the big draw for me. Now if you had announced that Janet was going to be there then I would have found a way.

You should make the mrbeast train

At the paint shop? Hm. Probably someone didn't protect the engine and/or fuel tank opening while sand blasting. That stuff gets E.VRY.WHERE.

Its gonna be nice to see you at lombard. Im sorry fellas I missed the part someone ruined the bus I was doing something and didnt pay attention until th is morning.. Too many evil people today. Sorry guys
