Thanks, I particularly like the tank wagons, the level of detail for an N gauge (think PlaRail Advance) train is stunning.
Now if I can only find a Nankai Rap:it I will be happy, unfortunately it seems that Kato don't make that model for some reason. The only maker I can find that makes an N gauge version is MicroAce at the moment.

Lots of Coach windows in the Narita....
![]() Those Tankers remind me almost exactly like the Plarail ones.
Indeed there is, plenty of windows that is, may well have to add lighting to that set, should look glorious
![]() As for the tankers, I know what you mean, but I think the proportions are better and the detail is higher, especially if you bear in mind the smaller ones are barely the size of an AAA battery ![]() Today, just arrived are some coal wagons, really nice - ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

I like how the Hoppers all have different numbers.
Me too, Kato's attention to detail like that is incredibly good. In a similar way I like the way if you buy a train - whether it be Shinkansen or just a suburban train each coach is different just like the prototype originals are. Most manufacturers make a loco and then just a number of identical coaches and if you are lucky different car numbers. When I post some pictures of the Silver Streak in its entirety you'll see what I mean, all 5 cars are different, individually named as well as numbered and all with extra detailed parts etc...

Latest Addition to the stable, a rather nice N Scale EF81 loco, complete with the shooting star logo, now I just need to get some Cassiopeia cars to go with it

Kind of reminds me pf the plarail one but with more details!
mostly Plarail items
Those roof details are great.
Question: Looks like the headlights come on when the engine moves forward but shut off when reversing...are there headlights on the rear which turn on when reversing? |
