Ah yes...the Chrome 583. The only reason I wanted this was its resemblance to the EMD F-Unit. All the other Plarail 583's that were made didn't strike as similar to the F-Unit except this one. That reason, the coloring and rarity too.
This is probably the 'only' train that I like the wheels in a different color and will not change them like I do with other colors that are not gray or black. After saying that I must admit that my first idea was to swap out the forest green wheels with black and I had accumulated 5 sets of black ones but could not come up with drive wheels in the same mold that were black so I abandoned that idea. The forest green do look good though in their own right.
I have forgotten what we have discussed about this train before. By the looks of the Limited box, its in English and released by Tomy USA. Can anyone translate what the number 2625 means? Is that the total number released?
