Kato (Japan) - N Scale - Series 789 1000 "Kamui/Suzuran" 5-Car Set - Gray/Purple/Black/Green with Red/White Lettering (SKU 3811-101821)
Available On: January 1, 2024
JR Hokkaido's 789 series 1000 series, the latest limited express train that connects Sapporo and various places, will be operated as "Kamui" between Sapporo and Asahikawa and "Suzuran" between Sapporo and Muroran. The origin of "Kamui" comes from the Ainu language, which means a high-ranking spiritual being with a divinity.
Inheriting the urban silver impression of the 785 series in the high cab design, it appeared in 2007 as the L limited express "Super Kamui" and the rapid "Airport", replacing the conventional 781 series. Features such as the sharp headlights, the beauty of the 5-car train, which is short but well-proportioned, the underfloor equipment that is fully covered to prevent snow from accumulating, and JR Hokkaido's unique reserved seat service "u-seat". In addition, the modern silver metallic stainless steel body and the difference in texture of the steel forehead are reproduced with KATO's unique technology.
