Into Canadian commuter trains? This Rapido Trains Auxiliary Power Control Unit (APCU), in GO Transit (green & white, late lettering) colors, nails the look of GO Transit's trains.
What sets this model apart is Rapido's signature prototype fidelity. To power and control its trains, GO Transit rebuilt former FP7 locomotives into Auxiliary Power Control Units (APCUs), fitted with a head-end power (HEP) generator and a control cab at one end. This model reproduces GO Transit's later lettering. Rapido faithfully reproduces the nose, photo-etched grilles and era-specific detailing. An ESU LokSound V5 decoder with HEP, horn and bell sounds, functional lighting and a MoPower keep-alive: it is all here.
