Tank car box car and rs loco
The ones they already announced are the Trainmaster-style bodies, to do the original Loewy style ones would require a new shell. Very different shape. And Atlas has already done those.

Was there a FM locomotive similar enough to the FM 16-44 that Rapido would consider leveraging the tooling they are already planning?
July 15 announcment day
Front page of their website has an FM H16-44 available for preorder. The Facebook pic says 3 but I only see two blacked out items? The car could be the X31 which is also already on the web site.
Now if they dare make an HH900.....(no, the Atlas models are NOT close enough to sub)
There is a Rapido post on Facebook with a blacked out "?'d" diesel locomotive of some sort and a cut of CN box cars. One of the box cars in the cut is also "?'d" and blacked out.
My guess is some sort of FM product by the shape of the long hood and a Canadian prototype box car.
Could very well be
Would seem counterproductive to make GO Transit coaches after Athearn already announced theirs. Could be why they used those wood mockups in the F59 video.
There's been another new announcement? F59 was the last new product announcement video, the latest video is of them recording the M420 at the Oil Creek & Titusville with the folks from TCS. Some nice cab shots. I've ridden behind that loco.
What's the point of an exquisite F59 without something equally as nice to pull?
Looks like go transit coaches on the track
Try their vidos on their web site

PRR X31a boxcars?

What could it be?
