Rapido’s all-new HO scale model will be the first mass-produced plastic HO scale model of the PA series to feature completely accurate contours and road-specific details. Carbody contours have been generated using a 3-D laser scan of Doyle McCormack’s preserved unit. Both PA-1/PB-1 and PA-2/PB-2 variants will be offered.
Our first run of HO Scale ALCO PA models feature:
Correct nose and roof profiles 3D-scanned from the prototype

A units and A-B sets available
Dynamic or non-dynamic brake versions, where appropriate
Full underbody piping and conduit
Separate grab irons and handrails installed at the factory
Etched-metal grilles, where appropriate

Includes pre-decorated etched side number panels for Rio Grande (non-illuminated)
Operating Gyralite or red Mars light, where appropriate
