It has a photo of a CN coach (HO scale) but is about the new N scale cars.

Richie, I just copied Rapido Trains' home page. The ad is one of the google ads that appear at the top or bottom of The Railwire pages.

I see the first two Pennsy offerings aren't even Pennsy cars!

I'm sure they'll get to the 10-5's eventually!

All of Rapido's cars are based on 1950-1954 CN prototypes.

What's it matter to you, ya turn-coat!

They figure since you've retreated to HO-hum scale, no one's minding the hen house.  They'll be painting Keystones on whatever they want to, now!! ;)

Rapido is certainly going to put an interesting spin on foobie cars.  If people will spend $48 on passenger cars that are 'close enough' than I'm done bashing MT about it.  which is saying a bit since I just figured out that every standard boxcar with a build date built before '42 is a foobie.

I never get why everyone does a sleeper first???

They make great looking cars if you do Canadian prototype.  Do wish they would do U.S. prototypes.  The only one I might get is their coach lounge - it's one of those close cars I don't mind using in a consist.
