Product Description

── Commercialized D51 498 with auxiliary lights!

――The D51 498 was kept static after the retirement of the actual vehicle, but it returned to the main line with the tow of <Orient Express '88> who was in Japan at the time of 1988.
――Since then, it has gained popularity due to the towing of event trains such as [SL Minakami] on the Joetsu Line, and has become one of the signboard vehicles in JR East.
--In 2015, a secondary light of LP405 type was installed beside the headlight.
――Currently, you are mainly active in [SL Gunma Minakami] and [SL Gunma Yokokawa], leading 12 series passenger cars.
――We will reproduce recent changes such as the auxiliary light mounted on the side of the headlight, the smoke collector mounting seat, the cab manufacturing name plate, and the appearance of the tender.
――It is most suitable for the towing machine of <10-1720 series 12 passenger car JR East Takasaki Vehicle Center> released at the same time.
