- This product is a brass model (metal model) made primarily from brass and other metals.
[About the actual car]
- The E1 series is the first Shinkansen train to be designed with all carriages being two-story in order to accommodate the increasing traffic volume on the Tohoku and Joetsu Shinkansen lines.
- It was originally designed to be called the 600 series, but as JR East adopted its own naming system, it was renamed the E1 series.
- In addition, the nickname "Max (Multi Amenity Express)" was given to this Shinkansen, referring to all carriages being double-deckers, and this nickname has been carried over to its successor, the E4 series.
- This time, Endo will be manufacturing the E1 series from scratch.
- The front of the train is made using lost-wax frontal parts and machined resin window glass, recreating the sharpness unique to the Shinkansen.
