I have seen these too trains listed for a high price and assume they had a limited release (says in listing). But I am curious because the box says Tomy Corporation Newport Beach California. Was this a Limited release for the USA only? Pictures don't give a close up of the front of the trains so I am also curious to know if this is modeled after an American train. The listings both call these a "USA sales express 583 system" but I am not finding any info on it. Might this be an early attempt at a 583 Amtrak F-Unit?
