## Description

A prototype of the 3000 number T5 organization of JR West Japan has been accurately captured and reproduced with different details (i.e. the presence of a No. 7 car antenna, jack-up hole, roof color, etc.). Recreates the observation dome and inspection equipment on the roof of the test vehicle where it was placed around the vehicle. The light reproduction of the "floodlight" installed near the pantograph of No. 2/No. 6. A beautiful expression of the characteristic yellow car paint. Unlike the regular 700 series, the headlights / tail lights are different from the previous 700 series and are made with 2 color headlights with different colors. The coupling has a restoration function and is made with the same easy-to-handle holo coupler (KATO diaphragm coupler) as the E5 series Hayabusa. The side windows are represented while the roll curtain is attached to reproduce the appearance of the actual car when inspected. Slotless motor for smooth and quiet ride. The basic 3-car set is a paper box, and the 4-car extension set is a 7-car book-type case, so it can store a basic set of 3 cars. DCC Friendly The railroad model is a system that provides power from the rails. Does not use batteries when driving, luminous, or even lights up. This product does not emit.
