KATO E351 series Super Azusa 12-Car Set N Scale

  
With its multicolor design and limited edition features, this set is a replica of the iconic E351 Super Azusa train from Japan. The Azusa is one of JR East's more popular limited expresses, serving many tourists heading to the Nagano area as well as those heading into Tokyo. Though the official terminals are Shinjuku and Matsumoto, some trains terminate at Tokyo Station and some continue on the Shinoi Line after Matsumoto. The name "Azusa" comes from the Azusa river that flows near Matsumoto city. When it first started operating, the Azusa was operated with Series 181 trains which included dining cars but these were replaced as the Series 183 trains were introduced. In late 1993, the Series E351 trains were introduced. These trains were much faster than the Series 183 trains due to their high-tech tilting systems.

Because these trains could get to their destinations faster than other trains, it was decided that trains operated with the Series E351 would be separated as the Super Azusa. The Super Azusa stops at fewer stops than the regular Azusa. It is N- Scale train, compatible with a two-rail system and is powered by DC. The set is made in Japan and is vintage, adding to its uniqueness. The brand, KATO, is renowned for its quality and attention to detail, making this set a true work of art.

The set is perfect for those who love transportation-themed models and is an excellent addition to any collection. RUNS AMAZINGLY WITH NO FLAWS AND DOES NOT DERAIL!
