Maybe its the angle on the Kato site, but the track separation seems wide on the curve..
.. and a tight curve approaching to make the station stop...
yep thats the unitram curve it swings from the 25mm spacing on the straight to 33mm in the middle of the curve so it does do a wide swing and i think that angle just magnifies it. jeff

I think someone on here posted a Kato release poster that showed this, but the picture was so small I couldn't tell it was a "painted" tram.. I just thought it was the Pocket Line tram in a different color..
I'm pretty sure I need one..

actually i think its more the baby chicken is served on the ramen! its always a bit quirky when the advertising mascot is the thing you are eating...
i broke down w/in about 2 minutes of seeing it at plaza japan... may sell off the old green version.

They actually don't look too bad, amazing what different paint will do.

Yes, the original have a sort of not real look and feel, but the new paint job somehow makes them quite realistic now. Always interesting seeing different things like this flipping modeling things between unreal and real like this.

They are goofy looking little things aren't they. If you guys want to buy a bunch I would knock 10% off the price if you can get an order of 5 together. Bob bob@bob@bttrains.com

Last night I was looking through my photos from last years trip and realised I rode the chicken ramen monorail while I was in Osaka. It's a real paint scheme after all.

Cool, thanks!
The tram looks almost like the monorail in shape...

AFAIK the chicken ramen tram did have a prototype, if I'm correct it was in Nagasaki. There is a small pic of in in a photomontage on the Introduction Forum, I'll look it up later. Cheers NB

I've really got to sit down and look at all my photos from my trip last November. I was just putting some of my video onto DVD for a friend at work when what do I see trundle past my camera in Kagoshima? These things are everywhere.
