Model Railroading > Power For The People!!!Date: 05/08/22 16:17 Power For The People!!! Author: wheel_slip A Metrolink F59PH from Rapido is ushering the commuters home this evening...
Pretty pleased with this model from Rapido. I'm really pleased with the lighting on this model and the fact that it has not only ground lights, but also step lights! EMD/GMD passenger locomotives like the F40 and F59 have very obvious lighting around the steps and so does this model. Andy Date: 05/08/22 19:09 Re: Power For The People!!! Author: wabash2800 Very nice. I'm curious how they did the step lights as many of us would like to modifiy our models and still be able to remove the shells.

I had hoped it would show the ground and step lights but either it is too bright out or they were turned off. Date: 05/08/22 23:08 Re: Power For The People!!! Author: Fizzboy7 Got several in at my store and they are all very solid and well liked. A great additon for SoCal modelers.

I ordered one direct and one thru my dealer. I really didn't want to miss out. These are a fav. as spend some cab time in the units when Metrolink started up!

Author: atsf121 Great looking model, that is my favorite Metrolink scheme. Glad Rapido didn’t have to cancel that one.
