HO LRC Coach: VIA Rail - Renaissance Scheme: #3331
After 45 years of reliable service, the Bombardier LRC (Light, Rapid, Comfortable) passenger cars are soon to be retired. To celebrate the incredible achievement of this passenger car fleet, Rapido Trains Inc. is delighted to introduce a special commemorative production run of LRC locomotives and passenger cars in N scale. Scroll down for HO scale too!
This LRC coach model, based on the LRC-2 and LRC-3 design, includes all the necessary LRC details. Depending on which paint scheme you order, you will get the correct seating configuration of either 2+2, 50/50, or 2+1. The axles have ball bearings to ensure they roll extremely well despite being of an inside-bearing design, and the lighting board contains capacitors to avoid flickering lights over unpowered frogs or dirty track. HEP cables, super-fine stirrup steps and etched-metal end gates or bars spice up the car ends.
All of the major LRC paint scheme variations are included in this run. For the first time, we’re doing the current “The future is on board” paint scheme in HO scale.
Features:
• Correct car profile based on original blueprints
• Business Class car including modern 2+1 seating
• Coaches feature correct colour scheme including brown (1981-1992), green (1992-2016), “greige” (2012+) and charcoal (2016+)
• Track-powered “Easy-Peasy” interior lighting and working marker lights operated by magnetic wand (included)
• Capacitor installed for flicker-free lighting over dirty track
• Super-detailed, free-rolling trucks and wheelsets
• Detailed diaphragms with etched-metal end gates
• Separate grab irons installed at the factory
• Improved metal couplers installed at the correct height
• Minimum radius: 18” (22” or larger recommended)
