Rapido Trains is proud to introduce the Horizon intercity in both HO scale and N scale. Introduced by in April 1989, the Horizon fleet (also known as the IIIs) were based on the Pullman- Standard -series commuter cars built since 1970. The new Horizon fleet consisted predominantly of two basic car types - Coach and Dinette - with 86 and 18 cars respectively forming the 104-car order placed with Bombardier. Over the years, the Horizon cars have remained largely unchanged from their as-built appearance, with the only predominant visual differences being the evolution of the Amtrak paint schemes from Phase III through Phase IVb. However, two key changes that have occurred include the replacement of the original power sliding doors with manually-operated parlor doors, and the replacement of the fold-down stairs with fixed steps. Rapido brings their experience with passenger car models to this long warranted fleet of cars used for intercity travel across America (and even into Canada). The Rapido cars will feature the same great attention to detail you’ve come to expect, including free-rolling wheels, detailed underbodies, interior lighting and more. The Rapido N and HO scale Horizon cars feature: • Coach, Dinette and Club-Dinette cars available • Full underbody detail • GSI G70 trucks with metal wheelsets • Accurate painting and lettering • Constant interior lighting in DC and DCC • Metal side grab irons • Full interior detail • Tinted windows

US MSRP $99.95 Why show the car CAN right-side up when there’s $119.95 no detail on the roof? Look at all those indiviudal parts. The Horizon fleet is getting the true Rapido treatment! Order Deadline December 2, 2019 First Pre-production Samples
