DEFINITELY getting at least one of both the Manyo and the Momo trams when Tomytec releases them later this year.

 

It may be years before I get around to powering them, though...

And in case you're wondering what dear old 5022

 

 

looked like before she became a snowplough, this page has some views of the 5010 series cars in passenger service, on the now closed Shasui line.

And in case you're wondering what dear old 5022

 

 

looked like before she became a snowplough,

 

Here's a web page with some Japanese snow fighting equipment and a multi page article on Manyosen's snow plow and snow fighting operation with numerous photos.  A similar single truck car survives at Toyama.
