Details

Kato will make a scale model of 8620 Steam Locomotive which was in service in Tohoku (north-east) regions in the period of JNR.

Despite the prewar production in 1914, many of the engine were used as traction locomotives on branch lines or as switchers in yards thanks to the high versatility even after the war. Particularly in Tohoku regions, the steam locomotive is famous for the triple locomotive heading traction of freight trains on Hanawa line and the traction of mixed trains on Gono line.

This is the first N-scale model of 8620 steam locomotive ever produced by Kato. This model can be used widely by connection to passenger cars and freight cars in JNR age in short trains or by connection to a long freight train with triple locomotive heading traction like the real train. A snow plow is supplied together for installation by choice.

A Sound Card is available for this model. The sound card needs to be used with the Kato Sound Box.
