Rapido N Scale F40PHM-2 Locomotives

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.
