Maybe this is what you are looking for?

 

 

Thanks. I tried doing that and the front part just won't budge. I'll try it again this weekend.

I can totally relate. I haven't been picking apart my rolling stock much, but when I've done it, I've often felt the same.

Yeah that is always the problem. Worst the first few times you open cars! But with practice and experience it gets a bit better, but never really leaves totally!

Hello everyone,

 

my name is Kaputnik from Germany and I mainly collect Japanese N gauge model trains. I have been a fan of Japanese railways for a long time, but ever since I saw a model railway layout in Kyoto station on a German TV show called Eisenbahnromantik, I was bitten by the model railway bug. As a child, I had a small Minitrix layout, but it eventually gathered dust in the basement and was dismantled. Two years ago I decided to build a new and larger layout so that I could run my trains. It consists mainly of German buildings, but also has a Japanese part. I would have liked that to be bigger, but Japanese buildings were hard to come by here in Germany at the time.

 

The photo shows the Japanese part of my layout featuring the Huis Ten Bosch 783 Series Limited Express (Micro Ace A3665).

Welcome to the forum. Your layout looks great. You’ve come to the right place for everything Japanese in model railroads.

HI Kaputnik, welcome!   I have only just discovered Eisenbahnromantik on Youtube and they have some great stories on Japan rail.
