Kato 10-2106 N Scale Sleeper Car Express "Hamanasu" 3-Car Add-On Set

Kato 10-2106 N Scale Sleeper Car Express "Hamanasu" 3-Car Add-On Set 

"Hamanasu," the last regular sleeper express train connecting Honshu and Hokkaido.

● The Sleeper Car Express "Hamanasu" ran from Aomori to Sapporo, passing through the Seikan Tunnel. It debuted in 1988,
coinciding with the opening of the Seikan Tunnel, and was a popular train that connected B-sleeper cars, premium cars,
"Dream Cars" (reclining seat cars) with both reserved and non-reserved seating.

● The train typically operated with a 7-car formation, consisting of 5 cars of the 14-series seat cars and 2 sleeper cars. During
peak seasons, it was sometimes extended to a 12-car formation, where it operated with even greater capacity.

◆ The side destination display is now included as a sticker (rather than being printed - as in previous products). The
headboard included in this version has been updated to a light-up type. The item number, price, and JAN code have also been
changed.
