John, Are you and I the only ones who would go totally nuts if Jason would say those magic words, "Century Four Fifteen"?  C415 on the Oregon dinner train. JL Vancouver WA PS...I keep bugging Lee about one since he's got the trucks!! |

If Rapido does the C415, they need to do ALL the variations, especially the ones that were never built.

If it is a C415, I am all in as my paper mill needs a few good heavy switchers. As much as I wish for a C415, my bets are on a F40PH as Metra operates quite a few copies.

Better NOT be an RS1325!! Don't be discouraged! I'm sure they'd do it in about two dozen paint schemes. |

I'd buy a C415 just because it's wierd. I'd want one in a plain generic scheme, like yellow with black frame or something, though. Can Jason do better than this?  |

Dana Stark could have done better than that.

 so would the "Never Built" End Cab C415 have looked like a Big T-6 on Steroids ? altogether Alco proposed 4 different C415s,with only one version actually being built. and don't forget the Hi-Ad "ADHESION" trucks. Spikre

?? why RPP didn't do more oddballs like the C415 is still a Mystery. would guess the CF7 may have been one of RPP's better sellers since no one ever did that one later. but think its really elementary today. Spikre  |

Actually, that's a Mehano issue and the later ones got the worm gear 8 wheel drive, the last re-issues by IHC got a flywheel and a revised motor. I bought a beat up one for parts and discovered I can't use much of it in anything else.

There appear to be photographs of the new loco in the latest Rapido Newsletter. What a looker!  |
