A real work-horse. Excellent detail. The flywheels are not heavy enough for the motor, so it takes some getting used to. Care must be taken so it won’t derail when starting. Review: Extremely Satisfied. - I am very happy and satisfied with the Kato D51 200 locomotive. It arrived much early than expected and in excellent condition. It is highly detailed and it ran quietly and smoothly on my track layout. I was surprised to see that it had a coreless motor and two brass flywheels. That explains the quiet and smooth operation. The quality is excellent. It comes with a Rapido coupler on the tender. However, a newer style knuckle coupler is provided if you want to change it out. ## Features - 10-1500 SL "Yamaguchi" can be reproduced by combining with 35 series 4000 series SL "Yamaguchi" (sold separately). - The black color of the body restrained the gloss, reproduced the atmosphere of a real car equipped with gorgeousness. - Application for JR West commercialization license in progress - Model : 2016-8 - KATO is a Japanese company that plans, manufactures and sells railroad models.
