Those clear Shinkansens are "somewhat rare". They are still available today. In this category of rarity, the Gold Bling Pokemon Train, and the clear E5 Shinkansen is comparable.

Some others I can think of that are rarer than anything related to clear Shinkansens:

Ah...I forgot about the Ultra-Q when thinking about the rarest trains I have. It is certainly a beauty in its 50's style, black and white movie tones.

And the Boat set is something I have only dreamed of having as it rarely becomes available and when it does I miss the listing.

For Tomica World enthusiasts or scholars: The Eurostar had 2 different boxes, one is the red TOMY mark and the other is the blue TOMY mark. I own the red TOMY logo box. TOMICA WORLD might have been a long running series. Any 2 of these fall in the "rarest" category?

RE: Rarest Plarail/Tomy Trains - Super - 07-22-2020

Are those different languages on the back of the boxes?

RE: Rarest Plarail/Tomy Trains - violater - 07-22-2020

They are multilingual, has English, European languages and other continent’s languages.

Getting back, for a brief moment, to the question of 'How Many Rural Station Variations' there are started a few pages back, we can add another one....While looking at our Disney trains I realized that there is also a 'whimsical' version of the Rural Station that came in the 'Disney Dream Railway Toon Town Set

RE: Rarest Plarail/Tomy Trains - violater - 07-31-2020

Totally forgot that one, will add it into the list.
Also add in the station from the ミッキーポッポNO.２セット:

There is a very rare version of the set, I don't know the actual name:

Single items were confirmed too:

In my opinion, any train with their original Tomica World box, regardless whether it be a Red or Blue Tomy logo, is pretty rare and highly sought after.
Here is a blue Tomy logo Eurostar with its original box

@Vio

Can the Station in the Mickey Poppo No.2 Set be considered for the list as its not like the other Rural Stations with an Out House? Or is this a different list you are referring to?

They are quite rare, but I don't think they are the rarest after seeing the prices around. I'm not sure if the Japanese in the Japan auctions would pay the same price or a higher price. There were 3 Tomica World Eurostars this year: I bought one, one was bundled with 3 other Tomica World boxes, and the one mentioned by Tharazero1 here.

I thought it was a rural station, but I didn't know the out house was the way to generalise it. As a general rural station, yes.
Clearly a palm tree is replacing the out house. Is a palm tree a rural plant? If yes, I think it is still counted.
