Shinano Railway 115 Series TRA EMU 300 livery

Shinano railway doesn't stop with the interesting liveries.

It looks surprisingly "natural" on the 115 series.

I want one!  Hope tomix or kato make a model of this paint scheme.

What is TRA EMU 300 livery?  Current pics only show very limited detail and I'm not familiar with the original livery.

Might be a good reason to go ride the Shinano Line again and go see their new liveries.

I think it wears it better than the original.

The cut from the bright front to the brown/beige/silver body seems a bit abrupt but I guess it comes from the prototype for this. i think I would buy a model if someone releases one.

I also realised why the livery of the front looked so familiar: It bears a certain similarity in color and shape to the livery the JNR era school excursion trains:

Looks like some Japanese modelers already have their repaints done too.
