Guest bill937ca Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Looks like the KIha is a Shinkansen wannabe! Not!! Link to comment
DJR Posted March 14, 2008 Author Share Posted March 14, 2008 I know! In the one scene I cranked the throttle and thought perhaps this KIHA just beat the SNCF TGV speed record. Link to comment
Bernard Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 LOL, I love it!! I was expecting to see this big powerful Shinkansen. Don, I wouldn't be surprised to see a kitbash a bullet train version of "Thomas" coming through the tunnel someday. Link to comment
CaptOblivious Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 ;D ;D ;D Yeehaw! Those Kato KIHA-110s are speed demons, and can easily whoop any shinkansen's butt! I've clocked mine in excess of 400 scale km/h! Of course, the DCC chip in there now regulates it to a comparably sedate 95 scale km/h...at something like 3VDC to the motor... Link to comment

I've clocked mine in excess of 400 scale km/h! I'm sure your Kato KIha whoops Shinkansen butt. I was referring to the prototype. Putt...putt...putt.... I've seen them on video. Putt...putt...putt ;D ;D ;D Link to comment
Darren Jeffries Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Something crazy going on with the URL link :o Nope nothing going on there... tip for all of you is that if you want to post a Youtube video, all you have to do is copy the url from the address bar... You dont need to copy the youtube embedded link code. This software I use for the forum automatically converts the youtube link to a video. I took the liberty of cleaning up the post for you... hope you dont mind ;) Link to comment
