Product Description

── Following PBA, PBKA is now available with the new paint! By all means, a powerful combined 20-car train.

[Product introduction]
--Thalys PBKA, which is active as an international high-speed train in Europe, will be commercialized.
--PBA released in October 2020 is exclusively for the Paris (P) -Brussels (B) -Amsterdam (A) section, while PBKA is in addition to the above sections, Paris (P) -Brussels (B) -Cologne ( It is also active in the section of K).
――PBKA is characterized by its rounded shape, unlike PBA.
――We will commercialize it with the current new paint version that appeared in 2016 on the 20th anniversary of the start of operation.
――The beginning part supports connection by drawbar, and it is possible to reproduce the combination operation with PBA and the combination operation between PBKA.
――After leaving Paris, PBA and PBKA will divide into the Netherlands and Germany in Brussels and aim for their respective destinations.
――You can enjoy it side by side with KATO's European products such as TGV, which is active in France, Eurostar, which is entering Paris, and ICE4, which meets in Germany.
