We’re proud to announce our latest run of Rivet Counter™ N Scale ET44 GEVOs which includes the highly anticipated Canadian National Heritage & Military Units, along with standard roadnames.

In November of 2020, Canadian National unveiled six (6) Heritage Units to commemorate the 25th Anniversary of its Initial Public Offering (IPO) on the US Stock Exchange. Four (4) of the six Heritage Units are ET44 “Tier 4” GEVOs which wear decorative paint schemes as a nod to CN’s predecessor railroads. Today, CN’s Heritage Fleet can be seen earning revenue for the Class I Railroading in both the US and Canada.
In addition to the Heritage Units, CN also unveiled two “Veterans” locomotives in a special camouflage scheme honoring both Canadian and American Veterans. On one side of the locomotive, it says “Thank You For Your Service” in French while repeating the same phrase in English on the other side. The design represents CN’s deep recognition and gratitude for the veterans who live and work in the communities its trains pass through every day.
