Doesn't a great package delivered to your house just the best thing? Definitly turns a frown upside down. I got a big package from Japan also today.
Can't see the first trains engine due to the glare...is it this one? Nice looking engine, is that like a hybrid in real life? It looks like a diesel but it has what looks like the pantographs on the roof.

We have a crossing similar to the one you have and love the ringing of the bell especially with a really long train.

yes that is the engine Super, it is Electric in real life. for the Japanese Freight trains the first letter is what power it runs off E=Electric D=Diesel the second letter is how many wheels are powered on the engine example D=4 wheel E=5 wheel, F=6 Wheel, H=8 wheel.

Very interesting, I didn't know that, thank you. What would the "C" stand for in the Steam engines or did I just answer that?
Does the headlight work? If not it looks like a perfect place for one.

It is a great looking electric engine. In this picture you can see the excellent detail. Look at that diamond plate on the front gangway (what would you call that) and vents on the side. And in this picture it looks as if the headlight has a red cover over it. No cheap window stickers here, just lots of real windows. The more I look at it, the more I like it.
I have never heard of Pla Day. Was this a company different from Pla Rail or Tomy?![[Image: Untityyled_zpsa6874843.jpg]](http://s1231.photobucket.com/user/conameche/media/Super/Untityyled_zpsa6874843.jpg.html)

Are you saying the picture above that I posted is a repaint, resticker of an EF15 to make it look like an EF59? Here is the link to were I saw this EF59 for sale And thanks for the real photo of the EF59, its much bigger than I thought and what do they use such a big deck out front for?
I can't say for sure but I thought it was this engine Sunhuntin was referring to as a toddler toy...
