bill937ca Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 The Yokohama show is happening this weekend. I think the see-through road and see-through bus is for demonstration only to show how it works. 3 Link to comment
bill937ca Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 This video will give you a good tour of the exhibits and some of the layouts. I believe the Kato layout is HO. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwH1XLfASQQ Link to comment
KenS Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Great videos. Did you notice in the first one the bus crossing the railroad tracks? I wonder if that's a not-yet-announced product, or just something custom-made for the layout? 2 Link to comment
IST Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Thank you for posting these videos! There are some really nice layouts. 1 Link to comment
westfalen Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Great videos. Did you notice in the first one the bus crossing the railroad tracks? I wonder if that's a not-yet-announced product, or just something custom-made for the layout? A double track railway crossing a four lane road with buses (twice in the video!) would make an interesting operating session unless you could make the buses stop when a train is coming. Probably not very practical unless it's a static display. Link to comment

Probably not very practical unless it's a static display. i guess you could do a kato type where the sensor puts the gates down and a lock flicks up to stop the magnet... but then if you had multiple buses running it would be problematic with crashes hahah Link to comment
The_Ghan Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Thanks for posting these great videos. Were they selling merchandise at the show? I saw a few people carrying bags but I'm not sure if it's just brochures. Cheers The_Ghan 1 Link to comment
disturbman Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 From the last video, it looked like there was some stands to sell some merchandise. Link to comment

The_Ghan Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Thanks for sharing Bill, Love the video with the three bridges, green 189 and 2 x pushers. I'd love to build a scene like that on my layout. Cheers The_Ghan Link to comment
keitaro Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 yes the asama really is something quite special. I have been looking at that and the 2 ef63's and the 115-1000 shonan as well. The ef63's look brilliant too. 1 Link to comment
