My Tomica World - Introductions

Honestly, got no idea how this functions in practice....

And here was me thinking you must be named after the Futabasaurus, a Cretaceous Pleisiosaur. Oh well...

Machine translation: "Plarail Pico is a set where you can learn how to drive a train using Plarail. The package includes a cartridge, a station building type controller, and a Plarail vehicle (Shinkansen) and rails. Place the station building type controller on the tablet of the PICO main unit, fix both firmly with the guide, and you are ready to go. I am thrilled by the boldness of the mechanism that the controller and the main body just "merge".

　Among the various modes, "Play with Plarail" is the centerpiece of this kit. Combine the rails with the station building type controller, build a course, and actually run the Plarail. As the controller moves, the train runs on the rails, accelerates, and stops. An animation linked to the operation is displayed on the TV screen. When the train departing from the station building type controller goes around the rail and returns to the controller again, stop it. Then, the screen switches to the image of the platform of the station, and new customers board. Then, we depart again and continue our journey on the Tokaido Line from Tokyo to Nagoya, Kyoto, and finally Hakata.

　Plarail alone goes around the same course, but by adding an element to stop at the station and carry passengers, it will power up the play on the Tokaido line. "

The 500 srs unit included has a hook on it so it's front car, no doubt powered, and controlled by the game.
