Advanced Passenger Train APT-E 4 Car Set

Product Description

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.
