new stuff for sunny

not sure what the story is behind this.

The train you have is 0 Series Shinkansen. It is the first bullet train in Japan. The sticket on the front of the noise is a sticker to celebrate final day of services on 19 September 1999

Last run commemorative versions of series 0 and 100 Shinkansen these are replicas of the actual trains and how they looked on their last runs in real life!
series 700 first run! hence ambitious Japan ! my favorite Shinkansen made by Tomy! You got a great deal on this long out of print set! and it is nice to know the discoloring is from natural age of the plastic and not from it being neglected ! Very Jealous over here as I have been wanting this set for along time I am in love with the Series 700 included with this set! great job hunting this down Charley!

thanks so much, leyland and geri. knew someone would know the answers! i will keep an eye on jauce for a new coach that isnt yellowed. dont mind it much, but would like to have the option of a good one as well.

geri, any idea what year the set would have been released, roughly?
