Not at all; our product focus is Canadian prototypes with a bent towards CN and a growing focus on North-eastern US prototypes. We have not yet ventured into much "modern" equipment but we never say never at Rapido.

Oddities neither attract us or disqualify a project.....

so, when do you run out of weird Canadian prototypes

Oh, I'd say we're A-ok with a never ending list of "weird Canadians"....... oh, you meant railway related stuff.....

Very, very nice. Not something I would ever run in my view of the world, but it's still a really nice model. Raising the bar, for sure.

Hey, Pud... Jason is clearly interested in producing oddballs. Can we convince him, maybe, to do an RS27? Please?

An RS27 !!!!????    That would be great! I would actually buy at least two.

You got that one right.... it's a requirement....

Or perhaps a more market-friendly and ubiquitous CF-7?

Will these come in kit form like my last order of cafe cars?  I thought they were RTR but my bad.

@randgust already does a CF-7 kit....or at least he use to

You want to explain that comment.... because it make absolutely no sense whatsoever..... really; got an issue ? If so, have you contacted your dealer, distributor or us ? Was no one able to assist you...?  Maybe you'd like to approach your issue like a reasonable person.....

I feel like the RS-10/18 and rebuilds would be a great fit for weird Canadians......

[Specter3]

Since you have admitted to a Northeast attraction to go with that Canadian bias how about a large drivered 4-6-2?

Mine came somewhat disassembled, I had to put it together. The holes for the trucks were not completely straight causing the trucks to be unlevel leading to derailing issues.  I put it together and fixed it.

6000 cars; yours is the first I have heard of with bolster hole issues; the very first. As for truck being off, occasionally rough handling cause this; but it us exceedingly rare. I can't even begin to address what you describe without seeing the car, then trying to figure out what the root cause is. All I can say is that it's impossible for a mfg. to fix issues they don't know about; and thus when they read comments in a totally unrelated thread that are an attack on their product they get pissed off; it's damaging and unfair.

I'm sorry your car wasn't to your liking.

Putting a truck on a car is on par with building an FSM craftsman kit!
