Hi all,
We've uploaded a video of the RS-18 locomotive and Tempo. The order deadline is November 19th, as is the deadline for the RS-11.
You can watch it here:
Thanks,
Jason

We actually got higher than usual "thumbs downs" with this video. Unfortunately they don't tell us why, so we don't know if it's people pissed off at Jordan or people scared of Janet.....

I didn't mind the morphing Jason/josh, or Janet's come hither routine, but all together made it tough to follow.

We actually got higher than usual "thumbs downs" with this video. I gave you a thumbs up. Thanks! In the last 28 days, we've had 16 dislikes and 756 likes. Those are pretty good numbers. It means that most of our customers get our sense of humour/humor, or at least can see past it and enjoy the models and updates. I learned a long time ago in this industry that it's impossible to get everyone to like us. The best we can do is be true to ourselves and honest about our products, where they come from and what goes into them. Some will like our approach and some won't. I will be uploading the RS-11 video in a few minutes. -Jason

Janet is the star of the show!!!! I notice a few trucks moving in the background. Maybe that is why you got the thumbs down. They should have been fishbowl buses. I give you a thumbs up only because of the babe.

Love the fiddle tunes. Next time may I suggest some genuine Cape Breton music? Plenty of good stuff out there.

I've always thought of the Tempo as the single ugliest-looking passenger train built new to run in North America. But the model-- the model is stunning enough that I'm in for one with a couple extra coaches.
And the video is a hoot, as always.

I agree with you about the passenger cars with their slab sides and weird looking outside break discs. The thing that redeemed them on the ski train was the nice Grande gold silver paint jobs. I commend Jason for offering a unique passenger train and when done in Ski Train colors will make a lot of post 1988 Rio Grande fans happy.

I loved the video and I liked it. The thing I hate about these videos is that they are so expensive to watch. Everyone costs me a bundle because I go out and buy something. I am with riogrande--when Rapido makes a Ski Train, I am in for one.

I think the Ski Train and perhaps even the Algoma Central versions of those cars will sell quite well!
