Product Description
-- It's been a while since KATO's HO trains featured a Shinkansen. First up is the H5 series, featuring the Saika Purple line and the Gyr Falcon!
[Actual vehicle introduction]
The H5 series was introduced in 2016 as JR Hokkaido's first Shinkansen.
Based on JR East's E5 series, some interior and exterior changes have been made.
The basic appearance and paint color are similar to the E5 series, but they are wrapped in a lavender colored stripe called "Saika Purple", and the symbol of Hokkaido and a gyrfalcon motif is featured on the sides of five cars in the train.
Like the E5 series, it is currently in service on the Hayabusa service running between Tokyo and Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto.
The Hokkaido Shinkansen opened on March 26, 2016.
The H5 series, which was introduced with the early opening of the Shin-Aomori to Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto section, is making its first appearance in HO gauge.
The basic set comes with a simple 4-car set.
By combining the 2-car and 4-car add-on sets, you can flexibly expand the train from short formations to full formations.
[Product Features]
H1 train of the H5 series is now available
The characteristic lavender band and symbol mark of the H5 series are realistically and accurately reproduced. The outer holo of the connecting part that wraps around the top is expressed in black.
Reproduces the form before the windows were blocked off to install the baggage storage area. Comes with stickers that allow you to recreate the blocked windows of cars 1 to 8 as you like.
The symbol mark is placed on cars 1, 3, 5, 7, and 10. Wheelchair marks are also printed on cars 5 and 9.
Equipped with a car body tilt mechanism and a front end coupling mechanism (H514-1)
Minimum passing curve radius: R370mm (When passing through small curves (R550/490 or less) on double tracks, vehicles on the rear tangent tracks will come into contact with each other, so we recommend operating on a single track.)
The destination markings on the sides are printed with [Hayabusa 39 Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto] on a separate part. Replacement blank parts and destination marking stickers are included.
The power unit equipped with a coreless motor enables stable running. Two cars, No. 3 and No. 7, are equipped with motor cars.
Head/tail lights are on (white LEDs used). Car No. 10 (H514-1) has a switch to turn the lights off.
*Since the product uses the E5 series body, some of the expressions differ from the actual vehicle.
