The Railway Collection Narrow Gauge 80 Tomibetsu Simple Track Self-propelled Passenger Car Aozora-go + Uncovered Car Set.
This model is based on the assumption that the actual Tomibetsu Simple Track is a non-electrified narrow gauge with a 762mm gauge, and has been converted to 1/80th scale and 9mm gauge.
By using the N gauge running parts and power unit (sold separately), the model can run on N gauge (9mm) rails.
The TM-07R (17mB) power unit for Railway Collection N gauge fits only self-propelled passenger cars, while the TT-03R power unit for trailer conversion fits only freight cars.
Two dummy couplers will be included to replace the coupling surfaces.
Trailering of self-propelled coaches and power conversion of freight cars are not possible. The TM-07 (old product) is not suitable for powering self-propelled coaches.
For rails, please use TOMIX FineTrack N gauge 9mm rails.
Two narrow gauge style (9mm) display rails included.
What is simple track? :
Simple track was operated by various municipalities to transport people, crops and milk in the days when road conditions in Hokkaido were poor.
At first glance they look like railways, but legally they are not railways or tracks, but transport for land improvement.
The simple tracks in various parts of Hokkaido all disappeared in 1972 when the Hamanaka town track was abolished, but a new start was made in the model world as the Tomibetsu simple track.
