N Scale F40PHM-2 Locomotive Ready to fall in love with an F40? Despite being responsible for sidelining the fan favorite ex-BN E9s, the F40PHM-2s have created a similarly iconic look for themselves hauling commuters in the Windy City for the past 30 years. Nicknamed Winnebagos for their similar appearance to the venerable recreational vehicle, these were the last 30 F40PHs that Metra ordered new, in 1991. Towards the end of 2016, the first F40PHM-2s were sent out to Progress Rail for rebuilding and application of the new faded scheme that was already applied to the MP36s and older 100-series F40PHs. Of the 30 locos, only one has been retired on account of a wreck off-line. The Rapido Trains HO scale F40PHM-2 locomotive features:

• Correct Winnebago style front
• Dual rooftop air conditioners
• Working head lights, marker lights and backup light
• Working Gyralite
• Stratolite or strobe light where appropriate
• Working ditch lights
• Separate, factory-applied wire grab irons
• PTC Antenna Array where appropriate
• Full cab interior
• Accurate fuel tank profile and exhaust silencer
• Correct pilot plow or snow plow per model
• Sound-equipped models feature a custom ESU LokSound V5 decoder
• Will operate smoothly on DC and DCC layouts

Ever experience a loss of power? Experience it no more with the all-new “Mo-Power” capacitor. Designed by Rapido with the guidance of ESU LokSound, this handy electrical component, which is integrated with the main PCB board, ensures you run uninterrupted from a momentary loss of track power. It will provide anywhere from two to five seconds of juice, depending on the Rapido locomotive.
