This IS the rarest of all Tomy trains!!
There is literally NO information about its 2000 release anywhere...Only Geris and myself other than you have ever held one in hand!!
The Yoshitsune is the Stradivarius of Tomy trains...
But The Good Western is identical in every way, and cast and constructed from the same molds, EXCEPT RED is used as its base plastic...
The Good Western IS (if you've ever seen the movie), "The Red Violin" of the Tomy train world.
It is the rarest train known to exist...hands down, bar NONE! It can't be sought out and bought, and it's not listed in Tomy catalogs, or included in any Tomy history or literature.
You can't look for this needle in any haystack either, rather, only be lucky enough to be stuck by it!!
There are now only 4 known to exist...
...and you have 2 of them.
Congratulations!!
