Has anyone heard when the n scale GMD-1 is going to be released? I was told December 2014 but thats all I know. The local stores have no idea and I havent heard back from Rapido yet.
They had some decorated models that I knew of as of a few weeks ago those were Canadian Heralds and I was looking for Undec, but then again there are different versions of them and they may have projected a release for December time frame. Best bet is to email them as I did for the info just given
From what I've heard, the N scale ones are in production right now and Rapido is expecting them to arrive early to mid January. So figure on dealers having them a week or so after that. Bob
Hello guys: The N scale GMD-1 is indeed in production and will ship shortly. We expect it to arrive on North American shores by the end of January.... our Facebook page has some pictures of the units in production at our facitory. Rapido Mike
Thanks for the update Puddington, please send extra NAR paint schemes to Calgary lol. I loved the GMD-1 N scale that was on a static diorama at this years Calgary trainshow.
I have no idea.... I'm a 1960's and 70's modeller so Gensets are out of my league but I know that someone will try... maybe wait for the B-B truck version which we hope to do in N scale net.
Neat Puddington, for me it's going to the Arizona Eastern Shortline. Those folks at Rapido are real nice to deal with also.
Well thank you very much; Jason, Bill, Janet, Dan and me are always happy to talk with modellers..... I'll pass your kinds words on to the gang.
I spoke to the owner of one of the stores here in Calgary. Im getting a NAR paint scheme with dcc and sound. Much excite, such wow.
I have absolutely no use for a GMD-1 on my layout, but I am going to get one just because they are so cool.
My layout is a freelance idea of northern Alberta/BC so it will fit in. I love collecting the rare locos that are unique to a handful of railways etc.
