I think my Doraemon ED 79 since it is the only train in my collection that I know exactly how many were made.

Might be a dumb question but why do they call it "Undersea"

It actually travels through an underground tunnel that is built underneath a body of water!
this diagram from the Plarail box shows its underwater route:

I am embarrassed (again). Blush

I think I asked you the same question once before and you posted this picture. Thanks Gerisplarail1

no need for embarrassment! At first I was extremely overwhelmed with the amount of different Plarail trains and all the real life info associated with them! I could not believe the insane amount of product out there! it has taken me years to get alot of it sorted out in my brain and I still know very little in comparison to the grand scheme of what is out there as far as Tomy and real life Japanese trains. Which is also what I love about this hobby I am constantly learning and it is ok to ask questions since I know nothing about the Thomas line I ask what Thomas fans would consider stupid questions all the time haha!

the Takara TOMY Thomas Climbing Set.

I'm glad that I got it just in time because I found that set somewhere in an antique place, in the toy section with a few of rare toys in different franchises.

It includes the 2014 Japanese Thomas with Annie. Very exclusive all the way from Japan. It's deffo a must-have for me Smile

My rarest train right now is probably the Thomas and the Jet Engine set. I hope to one day have a Plarail Bill or Douglas, or a Gold Thomas!
