Thanks, Mike!

You guys deserve it

Yep those pesky Amtrak Horizon cars are always getting in the way 🤣

@@rapidotrains take that turbo.

Thanks!

We're definitely nerdy... 😆

Amtrak *really* doesn't want us using the term Phase IVb. They were quite succinct on that point... 😀

Thanks! We'll pass that on.

Well we got her to help with the video at least! 😂

Thanks a lot!

Thanks, Rich!

There will almost certainly be future runs!

We'll keep it in mind!

rapidotrains THANK YOU

Our models look best when they derail and roll down a hill! 😁

The Horizon or Janet? 😆

@@rapidotrains Horizon

@@southwestlimitedproduction9738 Ooooof

rapidotrains Yep they’re both beautiful. But Janet is a attractive woman. Whoever her boyfriend is or husband he’s a one lucky guy. You guys keep up the good work Rapido is really becoming my favorite locomotive

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Great!

From?

Thanks for your support!

Fantastic!

Thanks!

Thanks, a P42 would look cool running with the Horizon cars!

We think so too!

Thanks!

Thanks!

Great! No time like the present... rapidotrains.com/products/ho-scale/passenger-cars/ho-scale-horizon-coaches

Thanks!

Thanks! Hope you can afford them one day.

Thanks! Unfortunately we're going to be at Peoria for an NMRA event that weekend.

That would be cool to see. 😎

That will look cool!

They are in production now!

Yes clear windows will be standard. 😂

@@rapidotrains awesome thanks

Thanks for the order! These are in production now. Should be arriving in the winter.

Yes we've moved away from the battery operated lights now for the most part.

She always has a great hair day.

Maybe one day...

@@rapidotrains That would be fantastic, because you put out a great product.

Thanks a lot!

Thanks! You should subscribe to our newsletters. Then you'd know about this: rapidotrains.com/products/n-scale/passenger-cars/n-scale-horizon-coaches

If you have one of our cabooses and you've lost your lighter please contact us through our web site and we can find you a replacement.

Good catch! There are multiple plans and we had to choose one.

@@rapidotrains Has to be, the more I'm thinking about it, they didn't have anywhere near that may tables either, only four, maybe five. The business class was larger, but still at the restroom end, basically the dinette counter is on the wrong side of the car and is further away from the restrooms. The last one I was on was on the Missouri River Runner, part of the Amtrak Midwest fleet.

Great!

Thanks!

Not sure what you mean. We have two versions: as delivered, and as finally modified. We aren't doing the half-and-half version with one original door and one rebuilt door.

Thanks! No need for pilots now... and we already have two bus drivers and two locomotive engineers!

🤣

Yes! And they are at an actual 480V AC! You'd better be wearing gloves..... 🤣

I think at question was whether it was a screwdriver or a front-end loader.

There are no plans to do that now but maybe later.

No question. Turbo wins. -Jason 🤣

Yes we are making them in N scale! rapidotrains.com/products/n-scale/passenger-cars/n-scale-horizon-coaches

Great!

You mean these? rapidotrains.com/products/ho-scale/passenger-cars/ho-scale-comet-cabs-and-coaches

rapidotrains What is the due date for the comets? I’ve already preordered a set to go with my Septa ACS64.

Definitely!

Thanks!

The VIA train let it win...

The Turbo would win. No need to race to show that... 😆

No O scale unfortunately.

It's in production now... but the factory is still closed because of the virus. It should be here in the next few months.

@@rapidotrains Thank you for the quick reply, very excited for this release. The pictures of 4615 on the rapidotrains website look awesome! Can't wait to see how the BC Rail Locos come out.

Yes - there are three in the roof.

That about summarizes it... 😁

Glad you liked it!

Hopefully by the end of the year.

Maybe one day!

@@rapidotrains Awesome!

That would be great!

The Ski Train is arriving long before the Horizons... You can order both! 😁

@@rapidotrains well then count me in!😁

As soon as we have samples we will make a video. Have no fear! 😁

We have a lot of them...

We are! rapidotrains.com/products/n-scale/passenger-cars/n-scale-horizon-coaches

Our customers seem to prefer it added from the factory, but we design the lights so they can be turned off easily. We've also chosen a light intensity that isn't too overpowering. Realistically leaving the lighting out wouldn't achieve much of a cost savings as they only add a couple dollars to the production cost.

rapidotrains Fair enough. Thanks for the response. Now that I think about it, the MSRP for the non-lighted version was probably the real price, as opposed to the other way around.

Sorry no plans for O gauge at this time.

@@rapidotrains ok

We have tooled all of the possible window arrangements. Our Dinette-Club car does indeed have two large windows in the business class end, as does the rebuilt Dinette. The original full Dinette has three large windows on one side, two on the other.

Well not quite, but at least they look cool!

Yeah but you live near the Great White North. You get our channels.

In the Great White North we talk funny.

We stopped, but only because Jason won. NO JORDAN WON! No Jason won. TAKE OFF! That's it - you're toast..... 🥊🥊🥊

rapidotrains.com/products/n-scale/passenger-cars/n-scale-horizon-coaches

When we have good samples. Hopefully this spring.

We are! rapidotrains.com/products/n-scale/passenger-cars/n-scale-horizon-coaches

👍

Janet and Don are very, very different people... 😄

rapidotrains it’s just a thing of mine to say that whenever someone says “you people”

You really should be reading our newsletters. rapidotrains.com/products/n-scale/passenger-cars/n-scale-horizon-coaches

That would more than double the retail price. Much cheaper for you to buy unpainted figures in bulk and add them.

While not much from the 1930s, we are the only manufacturer still 100% dedicated to the transition era, including Ugly Green. 😆

We actually tried that and our regular customers were very disappointed. So we're not going down that track again.

True, but then I'd have to start over! 😁 -Jason

@@rapidotrains Do not think of it as starting over, but as starting BETTER!

Thanks! We'll pass on your compliments!

Them's fighting words....

@@rapidotrains Its just that to me Amtrak represents an end to an era. Amtrak as you know took over passenger service on the railroads, and I really like all the different types and colors of passenger equipment before that time. I can understand that people like Amtrak because we're all different and there's plenty of different in model railroading to satisfy anyone's taste for trains. Excellent models as always and keep up the good work. Maybe a GG1 Amtrak? Didn't they run some of those in Amtrak colors? 👍

@Randy Wiesendanger If you can dream it, you can build it... For me, the CN never took over the WC... it's the other way around...

😂

Taken, I'm afraid...

@@rapidotrains The great ones who like trains, always are... 🚄🚃🚃🚃🚃
