Description

 

The EF81 has been used extensively, from the days of the Japan National Railways (JNR) to the Reiwa era, for everything from sleeper express trains to general freight trains. This model utilizes a coreless motor bogie drive unit system that delivers smooth running and high traction performance. It also features a taillight illumination gimmick, making it ideal for shunting operations in small spaces.
This time, we are reproducing the rose pink "standard color" model. Additionally, we are also simultaneously reproducing the "Upgrade Parts Set," which allows for more precise reproduction of details, allowing you to customize the period setting and detailed configuration to your liking. Be sure to collect this along with your locomotive.◆This product is a re-run. All other specifications remain unchanged from the previous product.

Main Features

1. This product is based on the configuration of the Tsuruga No. 2 Locomotive Depot, which operated from 1980 to 1982 (Showa 55-57), when it pulled the Blue Train.
2. It recreates the configuration of locomotives No. 75 to No. 136 (with externally fitted taillights, block-type license plates, and guide steps attached to the inside of the skirt).
3. While recreating the basic shape of the bogies and car body, the number of user-installed parts has been minimized. Easily take it out of the box and enjoy running without the hassle of damaging parts.
4. The wiring on the roof is made of metal, and the insulators are green.
5. Includes selectable license plates: "EF81 97," "EF81 105," "EF81 106," and "EF81 108," and manufacturer's plates: "Hitachi" and "Mitsubishi."
6. The window glass is gray H-rubber, the headmarks are "Nihonkai" and "Tsurugi," and the wheels are box-type wheels.
7. It features a taillight illumination gimmick. Switchable between single-unit operation mode (both lights illuminate), shunting mode (one light illuminates when moving forward), and traction mode (taillights off).
⑧ In addition to endless running, we also recommend shunting operation in small spaces using the separately sold KD coupler and uncoupler track.
⑨ Equipped with a coreless motor bogie power unit, it provides stable running performance and powerful traction. It can pass through curve R370 on its own.
⑩ The upgrade parts set includes signal flares, whistle covers, auxiliary whistle horns, radio antennas (antenna body and base), wipers, jumper plugs, release levers, small handrails, electric heating indicator lights, and white insulators, all of which are omitted from the original product. Recreate your own unique look. Guides for part installation are already included on the car body, roof, and skirt.
