Plarail TOMY Thomas NEW RELEASES

the Dog Express would have been neat if it 'Barked' as it rolled the rails 😊

In Japan, dogs say WAN WAN (apparently)!

[Super]

Might that translate to 'Woof Woof'?

The description of this, not real (right???) train says:

"Boasting the most comfort among all Plarail trains, this is an express train that you can travel with your pet, connecting the city and suburban recreational areas."

Might get to be quite odorous and messy with many dogs running around in the coach and assume that there may be many fights also.

It seams that creating track pieces that do something previously possible, just in a tighter space is becoming a theme and I like it as it could result in more interesting compact layouts! Perhaps we may even seen a smaller and tighter curve

Like the new releases! Especially that Plarail decided to not make some type of rails exclusive to one set.
Probably the very few times that Plarail add new number to the series (R-29 and R-30) instead of replacing existing rails

Oh, this Osaka Loop Line looks really great! 
Even the box looks great! 

[Super]

Thank you for the heads up Dr Chris. Although I will have to wait for more images of the Speed Cargo Silver Train my first impression questions would be...

Doesn't it look like there is a detached panel on the lower portion of the nose? What could that be?

It looks like (wait for better images) the driver is a flat image not like the first Best Selection release, The 60th Anniversary Train where the driver was half 3D embossed.

Also, it seems to look like the windows and passengers are stickers, again, unlike The 60th Anniversary Best Selection release where the windows were open and detailed with a removable cardboard picture of the passengers inside which gives a 3D affect.

Of course I could be totally wrong so I will reserve the right to change my mind later with better images and videos 😁
