Product Description
──Seki 3000 is commercialized in a matte finish! It is a reproduction of Japan's longest coal transport train that connected the coal mines and ports of Hokkaido!
[Product introduction]
- The Seki 3000 is a hopper car that was mainly used in Hokkaido to transport coal from coal mines to shipping ports. Its distinctive appearance is marked by a yellow stripe indicating a speed limit of 65km/h on the side of the vehicle and the words "No entry outside Hokkaido".
- We were able to see a 2,400-ton coal train, consisting of about 50 Seki 3000 cars, each of which had a vehicle weight of 14 tons and was loaded with 30 tons of coal, being towed by a D51 locomotive and other locomotives from the coal mining areas known as "Yama," such as Yubari and Ashibetsu, to the loading ports of Otaru and Muroran.
- In particular, the Muroran Main Line, which runs from Iwamizawa to Muroran via Oiwake and Tomakomai, has a gentle downward gradient and flat section, and the D51 Hokkaido-type locomotive has been used to pull Japan's heaviest freight trains by itself, making it a popular choice among steam locomotive fans.
- Starting with this product, the body color has been changed to matte black, allowing you to enjoy a more dignified Hokkaido coal transport train.
- In addition, the price and JAN code will be changed.
- For the traction engine, we recommend the various 2016-B/C D51 Hokkaido types, which will be released at the same time, and for the conductor's van that will be at the rear of the train, we recommend the 8035-2 Yo3500 (Hokkaido type).
