Japanese 205 Series
KATO TRAIN
Product Information —
KATO Precision Railroad Models is extremely proud to announce the upcoming production of a specially planned N scale "KATO Train." This multi-car set is sure to be a big hit with Kato supporters and collectors. For prototype modelers, this model set will have a very special heritage.
In November 2003, the actual KATO Train will run publicly on the JR East Saikyo Line in Tokyo. This route was chosen because of its geographical relevance, traveling from Tokyo (site of the Kato headquarters and Hobby Center Kato) to Saitama (site of the Kato factory). Another factor for the choice of this line is because the traditional green stripe used on the Series 205 railcars closely matches the green color commonly recognized as "Kato green" by modelers and rail enthusiasts. The cars will be adorned with several Kato signs while operating, in an effort for increasing the general public's awareness and interest of model railroading in general and specifically with Kato.


Like the prototype, the models will be silver with green stripes and Kato signs. Color photographs of the standard Series 205 railcar models, as well as a diagram of the arrangement of cars in the prototype consist, can be seen on page 35 of our #25-000 Japanese Model Railroad Catalog. The head-end cars feature directional headlights and one of the cars of the set includes a lifting (non-operating) pantograph. These cars are equipped with the #11-703 Kato Type A Coupler, a snap-together coupler with MU hose detail. The interior of the individual cars can be lighted with the optional installation of the #11-204 Single or #11-206 6-pack Lighting Kits (sold separately).
