Electric Locomotive EF64 was developed to deploy in mountainous regions. EF64 1000 models were additionally deployed since 1980in the bodies that were much different from the original EF64.

Not only does this locomotive draw passenger trains but it also pulls various kinds of electric trains in East Japan. The scale model also can do this, using the double-head coupler included in the product.


From this product on, the double-head coupler will be modified to a new tight coupler type without hook.

◆ 3024-2 The new renewal color version characterized by blue and white mountain pattern color paint scheme appeared about 2003. There used to be several paint schemes depending on the painting factories. Now they are all the paint scheme of new renewal coloring of Omiya factory. Later on, the appearance still changed such as addition of a cooler to the cab or removal of electric heater indicator lamps from the sides.

◆ 3024-3 JR Freight normal color is the color scheme which was once or twice modified but is now returned to the original JNR freight color.

Make and enjoy the scene that these locomotives are seen in various regions pulling freight cars or tank cars, etc. Multiple heading is also recommended as seen some times in real trains.
