The unsung backbone of many railroads was the small workhorse locomotive that could tackle almost any job given to it. In this video, we follow one such locomotive about her duties. Rapido Trains' second steam locomotive, the Canadian Pacific Railway D10 4-6-0, is a beautiful model. We see the engine in the yard, highballing down the mainline, and switching various industries. Come along for the ride as we watch this fine model train at work.

The modeling world needs more examples of golden age 4-6-0s, not 1800s era but locomotives that were built in the early 1900s and lasted until the terminal era. I understand why people want big boys and T1s and N&W 611, but i have an appreciation for smaller steam from the 20s and 30s and theres not a ton of examples out there on the market in HO. I might have to pick one of these up. beautiful example.

Wow!!! That was beautiful, gentlemen👍👏!!! What scale is this; 'O'?? Impressed to seee 'Rapido' is still around, though probably not the original company. I messed with model railroading back, in the late '60's, through the mid-'70's. I love my, N scale trains😁!!!

Nice job on the layout and thanks for sharing. I have a couple of the D10s. Really nice model but I do wish they would ship without the traction tire driver installed. But overall, an excellent model!

You Sir are to be commended as you weather your rail cars! I'm sick of watching N gauge and HO scale episodes of nearly every program with every single railcar and locomotives painted right from the shop! They spend years on detailing their displays yet, it's not real because it looks fake! So thank you for your railroad! Maybe all these other unrealistic railroad displays will learn a lesson!!! 😊

i got me one of these about a week and a half ago, beautiful model although im sending mine for repair because the whistle piece on mine ended up falling off and also i couldnt get the drive to run smooth with the non traction tire fitted set. im happy i have one i just wish they didnt go with an all geared driver style mechanism, definitely the worst part of an otherwise flawless model

I picked one up last Friday. Beatiful model but had a broken cow catcher on delivery and the rear of the tender squats pretty low. The coupler was low and the hose dragged over grade crossings. I had to shim the rear truck with 2 red washers. One of the boiler domes also fell off when I held the loco upside down trying to find out what happened to the cow catcher. I was able to carefully glue the dome back onto the boiler using Elmers white glue. Somewhat hair raising and quite disappointing for a $600 model.

I think the shop crew needs to do something about those squeaky brakes.

I’m pretty sure the crew trashed that boxcar at 14:51. 4’s a couple 5’s a collision. Looked like 15 to me…
