KATO N Gauge D51 498 (with side light) 2016-A Railway Model Steam Locomotive Black

D51 498 (with secondary light) D51 Machine No. 498 was manufactured in 1940, and was active all over Honshu. In 1972, it was scrapped and stored in front of Gokan Station on the Joetsu Line. However, 16 years later, in November 1988, it was brought back to life by JR East, and resumed its activity just as it was in its heyday. The first towed train to be revived was the much-talked-about Orient Express '88, which was visiting Japan at the time. I stood in front of the main EF58 No. 61 to pull the final train in Japan from Ueno Station, where it departed, to Omiya Station. Main Features Two types of license plates are included: the usual black background and the recently seen red background. Reproduces the LP405 type auxiliary light attached to the side of the headlight, the smoke collector mounting seat and the manufacturing nameplate of the cab. The tender reproduces its current appearance, including the partitions, coal enclosure, heavy oil tank area, gable piping, and steam pipes. Spoke wheels are used for the front and trailing wheels. Like the actual vehicle, the gap between the boiler and the underframe and the center of the box drive wheel with holes are expressed.
