Cool, I can take Mrs. Railsquid and say "look, I don't have that many trains really" ;)

I want that Dr Yellow for my garden railway! Mind you I haven't built it yet!

The case full of SNCF steam locos was very fruity! :)

Does anyone knows the name of the green Train at 2:07, and who makes it?

[katoftw]

The green train is an 5000 series isn't it?  If it is HO, no idea whom makes it.  Greenmax do it as a kit in N.

 

Edit//  And Tomix also release one in 2003.  Google Kumamoto 5000 or Tokyo 5000.

Yes, it's a Tokyu 5000 series. The model shown is HO. From memory both KMT and Miyazawa produced models of these cars.

 

Cheers,
