Looking for a caboose to bring up the rear of your trains? The Rapido Trains CN Hawker Siddeley caboose, in Ottawa Central #9106 (ex-DEVCO) colors, is exactly that kind of standout piece.
What sets this model apart is Rapido's signature prototype fidelity. Hawker Siddeley built 150 of these steel cabooses for Canadian National, the first delivered in 1967: the steel shells were built in Trenton, Nova Scotia, with final assembly in Fort William, Ontario. Fitted with dual oil stoves, a refrigerator, axle-driven generator electric lighting and Waugh cushion underframes, these modern vans ran across the CN network into the mid-1990s. This model reproduces car #9106 in Ottawa Central Railway colors (former DEVCO). Rapido faithfully reproduces the steel carbody, cupola, Barber-Bettendorf trucks and multicolor interior. Working lighting, etched-metal platforms and correct-height couplers: it is all here.
