The 2024 Tobu Fan Festa will be held on the 1st of December at the Minami-Kurihashi Depot (about an hour on the Tobu Skytree and Tobu Nikko lines from Oshiage (Skytree) station in downtown Tokyo). This will be the 18th time this event has been held since the first in 2005.

It will be marked by the release of a new limited edition Plarail Tobu Railway 50000 series.

The full name of the product is said to be "Plarail Tobu Railway 50000 Series 50000, 50050, 50070 (excluding 51001F)", though it's not clear how they are going to fit all that on the box! Destination stickers for various lines will be included.

The exclusion is explained by the fact that the first 50000 series car built, 51001F, has a unique configuration at the front of the cab compared with the rest of the series; it lacks the emergency exit door, the window is a different shape, and the headlights are in a different position.

Not surprisingly, this is going to look quite similar to the Tobu Railway 50000 series 50090 type that was released in July this year. The 50090 is exclusively used on the 'TJ Liner' trains, and is distinguished externally by its blue stripe.

Even though I am no much into the commuter trains I am always thrilled to hear about a new Limited Edition release. Thank you for the heads up Dr Chris 👍
