Item Introduction

The Series M250 Super Rail Cargo was designed to reduce environmental impact (reduction in CO2 emissions) and to provide high-speed transport for small-scale freight, such as home deliveries and packages, etc. It was the first limited-express container train to feature a distributed power system. In recent years, it operates with U50A containers instead of U54A containers, and the design of the front headmark was also simplified in accordance with this change.

Kato (Japan) have recreated the impressive full train formation as part of their “best selection” lineup. The 4-Car Basic Set is also an ideal way for beginners to get started with N-gauge in a fun and easy way. The U50A container is also sold separately. You can also recreate realistic freight scenes on your layout by adding a freight station platform or top-lifter! This product is a re-run. There are no changes in specifications from previous products. However, please note that the price and JAN code have changed.
