Description

C62 2 is one of the best-known Hokkaido C62 steam locomotives, associated with express passenger work including the famous 'Niseko'. It is especially recognisable for the swallow emblem on the smoke deflectors, giving the locomotive its 'Swallow Angel' nickname.

KATO's model represents the heavy Hokkaido specification with cold-weather and snow equipment, suitable for recreating Hakodate Main Line steam-era passenger scenes.
