Reply to "Model Railroading Hobby in Japan"

Here is a near O scale bullet train style EMU. It is a Chinese toy of a Chinese train that itself a near exact copy of a Japanese EMU. It is in effect a copy of a copy. This one and a mate are on my bench as a future conversion project that needs power trucks, some plastic surgery to convert it from a floor toy and a paint job. It cost much less than $8000.

This is a Japanese Railways commuter train in tin plate.These were like RDCs and often ran MU. It is a floor train and would take a lot to make it run on Oscale track. I have seen it in other liveries as well. I took the last picture with a MTH scale Subway car for comparison. A fun piece of contemporary tinplate.
