Something a bit different. Obviously they have been buoyed up by the success of the Pendalino.

I would love one of these but I just can't justify the cost vs not having a Canadian layout, the final nail in the coffin was the APT-E possibly coming in n gauge, although its great to see Rapido doing more N stuff :D

Hmm I wonder if they would take the payment in organs?   :smiley-laughing:

More years ago than I care to admit I had the Bachmann N gauge turbo-train so I think I'm excused.  ::)

A TurboTrain would fly off my rails. Also wrong side of the continent for me and even worse, it's CN and not CP. I'm sure it will be a magnificent piece of gear judging by the Rapido stuff I already own.
