924501 Rapido Trains OO Gauge Advanced Passenger Train APT-E 4 Car Set (DCC Sound Fitted)

APT-E: now on general release!

We’re absolutely delighted to announce that we’re producing another batch of ‘OO’ gauge APT-Es!

The National Railway Museum has given us permission to produce a further run of this record-breaking gas turbine tilting train as a standalone Rapido Trains UK product.

We do need to stress that, unlike the first batch, this version will not come with all the extras, such as commemorative booklet and limited edition packaging. But the model itself is just the same marvel of miniature engineering that we produced back in 2016.

Here's its specification:
• Accurate looks, thanks to a laser scan of real APT-E
• Full interior detail, complete with test and computing equipment that’s fully illuminated
• Directional lighting
• Flawless finish
• Accurate sounds
• It tilts
• Two five-pole skew-wound motors with flywheels
