Looking for a spectacular piece, emblematic of 1970s Canadian railroading? The Rapido Trains United Aircraft Turbo Train 2.0, in Canadian National colors (complete set of 2 locomotives and 3 cars), is exactly that kind of standout piece.

What sets this model apart is Rapido's signature prototype fidelity. This lightweight, articulated gas-turbine train was built by United Aircraft; Canadian National introduced it on the Montréal–Toronto corridor in the late 1960s. This set faithfully reproduces the Turbo's articulated, tilting turbine train, with its signature power domes and low-slung cars. Powered with DCC and ESU LokSound, interior lighting, detailed interiors and special inter-car couplers: it is all here for a complete, ready-to-run train.

  • Set: 2 power domes and 3 cars
  • Canadian National livery (#126-201-256-228-151)
  • Articulated, tilting turbine train
  • Factory-installed DCC and ESU LokSound
