The 1890 Rodgers 4-6-0 is present in the collection of 1978 offerings and return of the Mantua name to the HO-scale hobby market.

However, Mantua does not include Illinois Central among the trio of roadnames: Sierra R.R., Santa Fe, and Pennsy. An Undecorated 1890 Rodgers kit was offered in 1978, along with the decorated ready to run examples. The 1978 retail for the fully assembled model was $43. The kit sold in '78 for $39.
