Rapido Trains Coming To TrainLand Saturday 3/11 - In Store Event!

I wish they would make their busses in O Scale, O don't know if there would be enough demand for such an expensive vehicle however.

I've mentioned to them a few times that I wish they would get into the O scale market.  The response I did get back from them once was that if Rapido was going to "test the water" with O scale, it would be with the GMC "fishbowl" bus.  Frankly, I wish they would produce anything in O scale.  I'm sure it would be very successful. Maybe Ken Jr. can ask Bill that question. I have a few HO Rapido items and their quality and detail are excellent. Here's hoping.....

They announced intentions of bringing out an O scale engine, albeit it a British prototype, but the interest and/or pre-orders didn't amount to enough to push the project forward.
