Product Description

── `British version Shinkansen` Commercialized with British standard 1/148 scale (N gauge)!

[Product introduction]
――We will commercialize the world-class `<Made in Japan> British high-speed train` Class 800.
--Class 800 is a state-of-the-art bimode (hybrid) vehicle for intercity transportation that has appeared as a replacement for HST (diesel high-speed train) by the IEP (Intercity Express Program) promoted in the United Kingdom. Direct operation is possible in electrified and non-electrified sections by collecting power from the pantograph in the electrified section and supplying power from the engine and generator unit to the motor in the non-electrified section. Manufactured at Hitachi's Kasado Plant, it was developed by applying the technology cultivated in Japan to the British railway system under the concept of the company's A-Train series. Currently active on the UK's main lines, the GWR (Great Western Railway) and LNER (London North Eastern Railway).
――This time, we will commercialize the 5-car train that is active in GWR (Great Western Railway) and LNER (London North Eastern Railway). Since it is equipped with a front connection mechanism, it is possible to reproduce the 10-car train of 5 + 5 cars seen in the actual car.
――This product will be commercialized on the 1/148 scale of the British standard.
