Great information. Every time I look at that Plarail Museum I yearn for larger pictures but I imagine that the site was developed way back when people were limited on their megabytes they were allowed by their ISP's and the space & cost needed for a Web Site. Wasn't that when the term 'Thumbnail' was invented?
The original mould does not exist??? I always assumed that it was that mould along with some modification (poor ones IMO) that they used for the re-release of the Yoshitsune 7100-7105 that was released together with the Kyoto Railway Museum a couple of years ago. Maybe the no longer had the mould but they did retain the drawing/specs/schematic.
