Product Description
[Product Introduction]
The T5 trainset of the 923 series 3000 series, commonly known as "Doctor Yellow," is a Shinkansen comprehensive electric track test train that collects basic data for track maintenance on the Tokaido and Sanyo Shinkansen lines. Its distinctive yellow exterior makes it popular with Shinkansen fans, children, and general travelers alike. It is scheduled to be retired in January 2027.
- In addition to the basic set (3 cars) and add-on set (4 cars), a 7-car set in a special sleeve is also available as a new special edition product. The [Thank You] logo currently displayed on the actual trains will be reproduced with printing. You can enjoy operating it together with a wide range of Shinkansen trains from the 300 series to the N700S on the Tokaido and Sanyo Shinkansen lines.
- The basic set (3 cars) and add-on set (4 cars) are being re-released. The price and JAN code will change from this product onwards. There are no other changes from the previous product.
[Product features]
- This product features the JR West 923 series 3000 series T5 train set. It accurately reproduces the details that differ from the JR Central T4 train set (such as the presence or absence of an antenna on car 7, the jack-up holes, and the roof color).
- The rooftop observation dome and inspection equipment, unique to test vehicles, are reproduced in various places on the vehicle body.
- The 7-car set reproduces the "Thank You" logo that was displayed on the door windows of cars 1 and 7 as of 2026, commemorating the train's retirement.
- The [inspection floodlights] installed near the pantographs of cars 2 and 6 are reproduced with illumination.
- Beautifully expressing the distinctive yellow body paint
- Unlike the standard 700 series, the lead car's headlights/taillights feature two different color tones.
- The coupling section uses the same easy-to-use gangway coupler (KATO diaphragm coupler) as the E5 series [Hayabusa], which has a return function.
- The side windows are depicted with roll-up curtains drawn to recreate the appearance of the actual train during its inspection runs.
- The adoption of a slotless motor achieves smooth and quiet operation.
- The special edition 7-car set comes in a special sleeve. The basic set (3 cars) is in a cardboard box, and the add-on set (4 cars) is in a 7-car book-type case that can also store the contents of the basic set (3 cars).
