Review: 購入して良かったです！ - 大好きなD51機関車の、北海道バージョンが欲しくて購入しました。さすがKATO製品はリアルに出来ていますね！ 走行も静かで、スムーズに走ってくれます。 貨車を牽引して走らせたいと思います。 大のお気に入りです。 Review: Tiny and Slow but Detailed - New to this hobby. Purchased a Kato M1 set and wanted another locomotive. It comes with the Japanese couplers installed and include standard replacements if you have the skill. So, look at the photos US. It is smaller than the engine in the M1..so ignore the 1-star reviews. I was surprised at the detail though the little number plates require installation. It is slow and find it cool, so now I have a new idea about my future track layout. ## Features - This is a complete KATO N gauge vehicle D51 Hokkaido - This lineup can be enjoyed with heavy details in the harshest weather - D51 for extreme cold regions called Hokkaido form.
