Our Ready-to-Run TurboTrain comes in a 3-car,
powered set. For speed and reliability, BOTH
ENGINES ARE POWERED WITH SOUND. You can order more
Intermediate Cars to make a longer train. Several
different Coach, Cafe and Club cars are available,
depending on your choice of paint scheme.
ACCURATE
We designed our models with the help of two
senior designers from the original TurboTrain.
EXPANDABLE
The TurboTrain can be expanded up to nine cars
long, just like the prototype. Additional coaches
are available with different car numbers for all
paint schemes.
For CN and VIA trains, we offer special Turbo
TwoPacks - a TurboClub and TurboCafe car together
for a reduced price.
AFFORDABLE
A complete, sound-equipped train...
for the same price as a steam locomotive.

On December 20, 1967
the United Aircraft TurboTrain rocketed to an
amazing 170.8 MPH on the Pennsylvania Railroad in
New Jersey. To this date, this is still the fastest
speed ever achieved by a production passenger train
in the United States or Canada.
On April 22, 1976 a Canadian National TurboTrain
reached a speed of 140.6 MPH between Montreal and
Toronto. This is still the Canadian speed
record.
This year, Rapido Trains Inc. finally brings you
the first ever accurate model of the TurboTrain -
North America's fastest train.
Now you can relive your memories of seeing this
train roar past. Both engines are sound-equipped,
so your TurboTrain will roar at the front and the
rear just like the real thing.
