Well, it shouldn't be forgotten, Vio, it's a really nice train with a look and good performances (realistic speed). Both model and original are exceptional and unique trains! As for the opaque windows on the Plarail model, I really like them that way (because that reduces/eliminates the dust/dirt collecting problem, and it looks better). Would clear windows be better? Well, they would be more realistic, true, but this is Plarail, they are using imagination and that's good! And I don't expect it to be hyper-realistic. I like to live in a really good cartoon.
The new Enoden Plarail models have black windows, Blue Sky Train Keikyu's windows are light gray, etc. I like when they play with the colors in that way. On the other hand, this is certainly better than just holes for windows, as many trains have. And it's a colorful train, you just can't feel bad when you look at it or run it!
@ Super: I'm glad you like it. It's the central part of my layout, the center of the city and a good place for train spotting!
If I'll change anything on my layout, this is going to stay that way, it's really eye catching. I recommend these RMZ houses, they make the layout alive.

But I have a problem with my new order from eBay. I ordered another train and the seller cancelled my order and explained that is currently not possible to ship from Japan to my country due to coronavirus. Also I noticed that many japanese sellers all of a sudden don't ship to Europe. All my "saved for later items" overnight got labeled with: "Does not ship to..."
I'm worried, is the situation in Japan suddenly got worse? Anybody knows what's happening? I hope it's temporary...
