"The CPR Canadian" in N scale - news

[Puddington]

Today; Jason; owner of Rapido trains posted this to a thread on the "Canadian", as part of a cute little comment I made about VIA having ruined it by using old CN equipment in the 80's...

I can confirm that Rapido does plan to bring out a Canadian in N scale after we do it in HO. But that is a couple of years away yet. Most of our resources right now are going into the HO version.

Best regards,

Jason

Oh ya; if it was sooner I'd be joining the government as a member of "unorganized crime"...................

This is good news indeed, probably need to start saving now though.

Good, now maybe Kato will fast track their schedule.

I think that Rapido announcing their intention will kill any plans Kato may have had. Many, myself included, will ignore all else and wait for Rapido to do theirs.

Now, all that is left is for musing on them doing the LRC in N. Canadian, Turbo, LRC... jackpot!

Does this mean we'll get that insanely nice FP9 too?
