What did you order or the post deliver? (Japanese N Gauge)

Recommended Posts

Just ordered another Kato C11, a set of C11 number plates from Revolution Factory which includes several numbers that were assigned to Aizu-Wakamatsu, a DVD of the Aizu Line in JNR days, and just for fun, a keychain with the (current) Aizu-Wakamatsu station sign... 🙂

My latest box arrived. After all I need some where for my commuters to commute from.

Wow, lots of government housing. Most have large numbers on the side which I always think looks a little more communist  for a democratic country.

Is that an old-school animation cel? I don't recognize where it's from....

attended a Model Railway show in The Waikato district of New Zealand over the weekend. Was helping to display and run an extended version of a friends NZ120(TT scale) modular layout. Picked up some excellent bargains from a trader who has closed his store. E26 set (10-399) for $75.   Old EF65 Kato for $15ea. The other brown electric has no name apart from HT-60 on bogies,  but I suspect Shinano Micro ($30).  2 x Athearn F59PHI for $20ea. OHA 30 coaches were $10ea and Tomix 2777 hopper packs were $20 pkt. managed to get some TT scale vehicles and figures/animals from the same trader.  Also received some secondhand triang/Hornby from a deceased estate

Quite a haul, beakaboy 

 

I received a modest selection of grass, shrubbery, and stone for my upcoming landscaping efforts, plus a couple more containers, because you can never have too many.

Yes I saw loads by chishirodai station whist zooming around Google earth. Interseting buildings around there. Right by the  station. Apartments, school, houses, supermarket and shops with roof top parking.

It's been a while since I received more than one (or none) packages with Japanese trains per week.

I was eyeing up that Love Live train too. Just wish there was an easy way to decrease the gap between cars. 

 

Are you motorizing it?

If you equip it with Tomix TN couplers and glue on gangways the gap will be very small to almost nonexistant, as with "normal" models.

Very nice on the containers, are the Super Green Shuttle Liner ones all renumbered? Puts my eight or 9 car consist for it to shame. 

 

*something-something oh they can make a Love Live!! train but no Idolm@ster trains grumble-grumble*

Be a bit cautious with TN couplers on Tomytecs. Tried them on my 119 Series single cars only to find the wheels hit the coupler mounting plate. Luckily I had a spare pair of bogie frames so was able to revert to Rapidos until I can think of a solution (probably Kato Shibatas in the Tomytec coupler mounts).

Hooray. My pots of Mr Color paint turned up in time for the holiday weekend.

Yes I could have probably got matching shades from another manufacturer cheaper, but if your colour vision is shot. Sometimes it makes sense paying a little extra to get the ones listed.

Gunze has really high quality paints, well worth the price. Just make sure to remember these are solvent based, not acrylics 🙂

Not just those. All the containers are individually numbered.

The front end reminds me of another type of train: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:Prototyptriebzug,_270_005.jpg

So it wasn't just me. 😄

But I think this one is even more accurate http://www.tt-kroli.de/BR_280_Fotogalerie_Indienststellung.html
