2 FOLLOWING THE SUCCESS of the CPR Royal Hudson, Rapido Trains is very pleased to reveal it s first Canadian National locomotive in the Icons of Canadian Steam series, the CNR H-6d/g class in HO scale. Originally built by Montreal Locomotive Works for the Canadian Northern Railway, Canadian National s H-6 class 4-6-0s were a light, general-purpose locomotive perfectly suited to freight or passenger work across the entire CNR system. They lasted in regular service into the late 1950s with several being preserved after the end of steam. In 1919 the CNR inherited 797 locomotives from the Canadian Northern Railway of which 348 were types of a clean and functional design. The Rapido HO Scale model represents subclass H-6-d, 20 of which were built in 1910 and 1911 in the number series 1323 to 1342, and subclass H-6-g, built in two batches in 1912 and 1913 for a total of 56 locomotives and numbered 1354 to The original locomotives of the two subclasses were largely identical in The HO Scale H-6d/g Model Features: Designed from blueprints and field measurements Factory-applied details specific for each road number Smooth-running drive & heavy diecast weight centred above the drivers for exceptional pulling power Blackened metal wheels and driving rods Working head, marker and classification lights, as well as a flickering firebox light* DCC sound version includes synchronized chuff, accurate whistle, bell and many other effects!** Accurate and complete piping, underbody and tender details Accurate paint and decoration 18 Minimum radius (22 recommended) H-6-g #1389 PHOTO COURTESY JOHN RIDDELL specifications and dimensions. Over the years, several modifications were made to the class which created some visually distinct locomotives. These include but are not limited to installing new steel cabs to replace the original wooden ones, conversion of part of the fleet from coal to oil fired, and wooden extensions to the tender bunker for those * Not all lighting effects available on Silent versions. ** User-controlled sound features only accessible on DCC layouts.
