This detailed model is based on the numerous general service 8,000-gallon cars, including cars modified in the 1920s and 1930s through the addition of insulation and jacketing, and perhaps the most unusual X-3 variants: the \"breadbox\" cars which hauled transformer The Rapido model is offered in distinct versions for pre-1953 K-brake equipped cars and 1940s and later AB-brake equipped cars. Models also feature correct handbrake and coupler cut bar arrangements based on brake equipment. The cars are accurately scaled from prototype blueprints and feature fully detailed underframes including bolsters, piping and equipment as well as correct Andrews or Bettendorf trucks as appropriate. The cars are accurately decorated and are available individually and in multiple-car packs with multiple roadnumbers. The cars come equipped with Rapido semi-scale metal knuckle couplers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rapido","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46396073836682,"sku":"159101A","price":56.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/3954\/7786\/files\/3149998091858Q.jpg?v=1749775675"},{"product_id":"rapdio-ge-u25b-low-hood-burlington-northern-5415-dcc-and-sound-ho-scale","title":"Rapido GE U25B Low Hood - Burlington Northern #5415 - DCC and Sound - HO Scale","description":"\u003ch1 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003eThis is a pre-order item!\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003eOn the product page, you must wait until the \"Pre Order Now\" and the \"Partial Payment of $0.00\" appear BEFORE you click \"Pre Order Now\".

It packed a punch with 2,000 hp, low or high short hoods and paved the way for future “GP” models to follow. 706 of these four-axle beasts were manufactured at EMD’s La Grange Plant, at the heart of railroad world. During the 1970s, 80s and 90s, the GP38 was common power on road freights, locals and yard jobs. If you traveled to Chicago, you were bound to see a GP38 operating for any of the usual class one roads.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003eOf the 706 built, a good portion of the GP38s were rebuilt to either -2 or -3 standards.

During the 1970s, 80s and 90s, the GP38 was common power on road freights, locals and yard jobs.

Lastly, 422 were made for China with many significant export differences, and the final units produced were 8 for Comilog in Gabon.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite smaller production numbers, the C36-7 was ordered at key moments that resulted in it representing the evolution of GE’s Dash-7 line more than the popular C30-7's. When GE launched “1977 Series Locomotives” (Dash-7's) in, they cataloged a C30-7, C33-7, and C36-7. Railroads immediately ordered C30-7's for booming coal service. The C33-7 was never ordered. The C36-7 was ignored until 1979, when National de Mexico and Ferrocarril del Pacifico placed orders.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese export C36-7's for Mexico were essentially identical externally to C30-7's, which were being built by the hundreds at the time. Ferrocarril del Pacifico’s units were repainted into striking two-tone blue FNM paint and worked both freight and passenger service. Of the 40 C36-7's built for Mexico, only one is still in service - Ferromex 9336. Incredibly, despite being the last operating C36-7 (among few remaining operating C30-7's) 9336 was repainted in Ferromex’s classy “Diet Coke” scheme in 2023.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn March 1981, GE built the first domestic order of C36-7's – a small order of 6 for Norfolk and Western. N\u0026amp;W received 25 more C36-7's in the “Claytor” scheme a year later in 1982. All of the N\u0026amp;W units featured a slight late-production change in hood doors and seams behind the cab, shared with late production C30-7's. They were set up short hood forward, and their high horsepower was put to good use on N\u0026amp;W’s heavy trains.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy that time, GE 6-axle production heavily tapered off domestically – the last domestic C30-7's ordered were produced for Santa Fe in late 1982 and early 1983; after that, all C30-7 production was for Mexico. After over a year of pause, a 12-unit C36-7 order for Norfolk Southern was produced in 1984 – and they looked very different. Hinting at future Dash-8 design, the units had a boxy raised hump for extended range dynamic braking behind the cab. Despite the boxyness, they also had a late Dash-7 feature – a totally smooth, rounded nose, with no box for the headlight. As an NS purchase, these units were set up long-hood forward, including plows and later ditch lights on the rear.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNext, Conrail received 25 C36-7's in 1985 that did not feature the boxy hump but did have other late-production features like the smooth nose and hood detail differences. Additionally, they were rated at 3,750 hp. These were a common sight in consists with C30-7A's on the CR system, and were used in all manner of service, from heavy coal drags to intermodal and mixed freight.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, in late 1985, Missouri Pacific received the largest and most distinct order of C36-7's – 60 units numbers 9000-9059. Missouri Pacific was being merged into UP at the time of their order, so the units came in UP yellow with Missouri Pacific \"North Little Rock” shop lettering. The units featured the boxy dynamic brake housing, and added a higher capacity 4,300 gallon fuel tank that filled the entire space between the trucks, and were rated at 3,750 hp.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEarly on, there were performance issues with the engines and in 1988 major work began to upgrade and replace the engines and other components. After six units were completed, Union Pacific, with the merger fully completed, began to reletter the units as they were outshopped. Performance improved, and the 9000-series numbers were retained.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn September 1995, UP needed to clear numbers for CN\u0026amp;W C40-8W's, and assigned 2600-2659 as a new number series, which 27 units received. Before that was completed, the SP merger prompted another reassignment to 600-659, but renumbering proceeded slowly. Finally, in December 1999, yet another renumbering began, to the 7942-7999. Few units received it before disposition in 2001. To make matters more confusing, UP never completed any of these renumbering’s – at the end (2001), units still existed in the original 9000 series, 2600 series, and 600 series!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"PIIAA07\"\u003eThat covers it! Except – why are there BN units in here? Because BN ultimately rostered what they called C33-7’s and C36-7’s. During 1991 BN began an upgrade process to over 40 C30-7’s, which received improved wheel slip control, additional ballasting, and increased horsepower. Units uprated to 3,300hp became “C33-7’s”, and to 3,600hp became “C36-7’s”. Externally, there was no difference, although at some point in the late 1980’s BN’s C30-7’s had a door swapped near the radiator to add an extra grille. For the upgraded units, the key difference was red numberboards to distinguish the upgrade – this applied to both cascade green units, and units that received “Whiteface” paint. To avoid confusion, this was not the same as a late 80’s test of lube oil on certain units, which also was shown by yellow or red numberboards. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rapido","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47314264850570,"sku":"42605","price":335.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/3954\/7786\/files\/35549973731704.jpg?v=1762911338"},{"product_id":"rapido-c36-7-norfolk-southern-8534-sound-dc-dcc-ho-scale-1","title":"Rapido C36-7 | Norfolk Southern #8534 | Sound | DC\/DCC | HO Scale","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRapido is excited to announce the follow-up to our C30-7 model, the long-awaiting GE C36-7 in HO Scale. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"U2QG0J6\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e  The Rapido HO Scale C36-7 Locomotive features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Headlights and rear lights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass lights, marker lights, or ditch lights, where applicable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStep lights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Lit numberboards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull traction motor casing details\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal brake chain on engineer’s side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed underbody piping and conduit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeparate grab irons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRapido’s innovative dead straight metal side handrails with plastic stanchions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetailed cab interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLighted control stand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy, die-cast weight for heavy hauling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-pole skew-wound motor with dual flywheels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSound-equipped units feature ESU Loksound V5 decoders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMany road specific details – see table\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNorfolk Southern - Delivered in 1982\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRockwell truck sideframes with high brake cylinders \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eC36-7 late 7-grille hood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended range dynamic brake “hump”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLate rear with raised numberboards and low (blanked) class lights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge “silenced” exhaust with early (small) exhaust inside\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-window cab with flagholder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eN\u0026amp;W\/NS-specific lower pilot step\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth nose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirecracker antenna\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen cutout NS plow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen cutout NS plow on rear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBanked class lights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDitchlights front and rear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe C36-7 was General Electric’s higher-horsepower six-axle Dash-7 offering, with a 16-cylinder 3,600 horsepower or 3,750 hp rating (compared to the C30-7's 3,000 hp.)
