Product Description
──The last two-car train in standard color, the 8500 series, has been decided to be produced!
A total of 712 Tobu Railway 8000 and 8500 series cars have been manufactured since 1963, making them the largest number of cars of the same model among private railway commuter trains.
Of these, the 8500 series is a fixed two-car formation.
Taking advantage of the short length of the trains, mainly later manufactured cars were adapted for one-man operation during repair work, and they were used on the Kameido Line, Daishi Line, Kiryu Line, Koizumi Line, and Sano Line.
Currently, the line is gradually introducing 10000 series one-man operated cars, and the 8500 series will end its commercial operation within Tokyo with its operation on the Daishi Line on July 15, 2025.
This product will feature the 8579 train, a two-car 8500 series train that was in service on all lines with one-man operation and was the last commercial train on the Kameido Line and Daishi Line.
By using a separately sold power unit and N gauge running parts, it can be run as an N gauge model train.
We recommend the TM-08R (20m class A) power unit, TT-04R running parts set, and PT4811N<0258> pantograph.
*Display stand is not included.
1/150 scale N gauge size, painted and assembled, open packaging
