Hi all, I've just uploaded a new sound video of the FPA-4 and FPB-4. To give everyone a chance to watch this and be really impressed, we've decided to extend the ordering deadline to the end of this month. You can read more about the models by clicking the link below. www.rapidotrains.com/fpa4.htmlThanks and regards, Jason |

Not bad, not bad at all!! Can't wait for your first American diesel project, as it would be awesome to have some of that Rapido greatness in something I can use! ;-)

Jason,
I think that a lot of us have come to expect high quality from Rapido. The units are gorgeous and with eyes shut it's easy to tell that's classic Alco "music". What a sweet sounding horn!
You're probably tired of hearing it, but many of us south of the Canadian border wish that we had a "Jason" at Walthers. No disrespect to Walthers, but your marketing strategies and public relations methods should be required research in college business classes.

Probably one of the best sounding horns I've heard. What's up with that nose though?  |

That sounds very good. Seems well balanced and not to "tinny" sounding like a bunch of sound decoders.

Nice video Jason, but at only 240p resolution? Blurry but the sound was nice.
BTW, the passenger cars in that Napa Valley wine train are ex-D&RGW ski train cars IIRC!
Cheers, Jim

You should be able to see the full-size one by going to our YouTube page: www.youtube.com/rapidotrainsWe've extended the deadline to the end of this month so people have time to watch the video and hear the sounds. So far the orders are looking pretty good! -Jason |

Really nice sound!!!!!! Living in Northern California and since I have ridden the Wine Train 4 times, will I be able to get a set??? We get the dome diner ticket and watching those units run around the train is amazing.
Thanks
Larry
