Rapido’s all-new model of the E8/9 breaks new ground and promises to be the most accurate plastic model of these iconic locos yet. Designed from a 3D laser scan of Union Pacific E8 #942 at the Southern California Railway Museum to ensure that those impossible-to-guess contours are bang-on accurate.
