F40PH-2D has been the face of passenger train travel in Canada since the 1980s
and while there have been a number of inaccurate F40 models painted in VIA colours,
there has never been an accurate N scale model of this 3000-horsepower Canadian
workhorse. Until now. The
F40PH-2D was built in London, Ontario between 1986 and 1989. It features a desktop
control stand (hence the “D” in the designation); a unique fuel tank
and underframe arrangement; a unique carbody design with custom panel and door
locations; and numerous other Canadian-only details. |

F40PH-2D |
| Prototype
Information | | In
2010 VIA Rail Canada contracted CAD Railway Industries in Lachine, Quebec, to
rebuild its F40 locomotive fleet. This involved removal of the HEP (Head End Power)
alternator and installation of a separate HEP generator in the rear of the locomotive.
At the same time the locomotive was given VIA’s green, grey and yellow Renaissance
paint scheme first seen on the P42DC locomotives in 2001. By the end of 2012 all
52 F40PH-2D locomotives had been rebuilt. Rapido
Trains Inc. is delighted to introduce the only N scale model ever produced of
this uniquely Canadian passenger workhorse.

Canadian au verso (on the back). The locomotive was number 6403 and the VIA logo

of the $10 bill version of 6403, complete with the Canada wordmark. As an added
bonus, 25 of the locomotives will have $10 bill hidden in the box. |
