SONIC883_de Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Hi guys, sorry for the long silence. Some know my health and time status... dont ask. I haven't stop modelrailroading and the IG nippoN Modules arn't dead. We/I try wo show some news in the late summer. But meanwhile I will sort my collition of locos and trains. I wachted many videos und photo libraries, but I havn't found nice formations. Rolling stock which is missing will be bought - other stuff sold. My main collecting themes are JR Kyushu and JR Freight. I haven't many Ideas. The main problem are the SL and passenger cars My first collecting theme is JR Kyushu, than heavy hauling trains (of JRF). Here my rolling stock C11 (KATO)C51-247 Tsubame (MicroAce A6608)DE10-1000 (KATO 7011-2)DE10 JRF (TOMIX 2220)DD51 JRF (TOMIX 2218)DF50-60 (MicroAce A1378)DF50 (TOMIX 2204)ED73-22 (MicroAce A0160)ED74-5 (MicroAce A0171)ED75-1000 (TOMIX)EF64-1000 (KATO)EF66 cream with blue JR (TOMIX)EF210 (TOMIX)EF510-2 (MicroAce A1161)EH500 (TOMIX 2147) TAKI1000 Japan Oil Transport (green) 6xTAKI1000 Japan Oil Terminal (blue) 6xTAKI1100 UBE 6x (MicroAce A3127)WAMU (3)80000 15x (MicroAce A3560)WAMU (2)80000 8xKOKI 104,106,110 JRF Container 10xKOKI 50000,102,103,104 8xKOKI200 JRF, 2x Gas Tank 5xKOKI71,50000 Car Rack 7x (MicroAce A1257)YO8000 2xTORA50000 2xCHI1 2xHOKI2200 5xSeries 14 From MA-Set? 5xOHA47 blue 1xOHA35 blue 1xOHANI36 blue 1xORO60 correct name? 3x My ideas are: DE10 JRF + KOKI200 (a EF64/65 looks good as well) DE10 + WAMU (3)80000 DD51 + KOKI50000,102,103,104 EF64 + TAKI1100 UBE (maybe an DD51-500?) EF66 + WAMU(2)80000 + Yo8000 EF210 + TAKI1000 green EF510 + KOKI71/50000 Car Rack (or is a EF64/65 the better choose?) EH500 + KOKI104,106,110 But how to combine the other locos and waggons? Do you have some (other) ideas? -Kai Link to comment
CaptOblivious Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 As I recall, TAKI1000 are used for gasoline runs on the Joban line, so would be a match for the EF510 as well. Any of those diesel or electric locos could be seen hauling KOKI strings, no doubt. Link to comment
Martijn Meerts Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Kato has 3 cars sort of meant for the C11 (which all 3 happen to be in stock at Hobby Search, and are decently priced ;)) Oha 31: http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10003891 Oro 30: http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10003892 Ohani 30: http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10003893 Link to comment
SONIC883_de Posted May 25, 2012 Author Share Posted May 25, 2012 Thank you for your answers! The modern formations arn't a really big problem. There are so many sources to find the right. Okay, the KOKI71 Car Rack are only shown as a single wagon, but not in a complete formation. The problem childs are the steam locos the DF50 and the EF66 (-20?) - formations which was running 10 or more years ago. I have may pictorial books. But there you can't identify the coaches. Or the photos are in b/w so that you can't really say what is all behind th locos. @Martjin: Dou you know a formation with this coaches? I have the ORO60 three times. But is that prototypicaly? The EF66 in cream wit blue JR is another problem child. Many photos for the loco with container wagons. But which type? KOKI50000? This livery doesn't look so popular. - Kai Link to comment
Martijn Meerts Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Kai, I bought one of each of the coaches I linked to for my C11.. Kato seems to have introduced the C11 together with those coaches, and advertised them as sort of a set , as seen here: http://www.1999.co.jp/itbig00/10003891b2.jpg Link to comment
CaptOblivious Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Re: EF66. Can't go wrong with koki50000. Just don't mix them with the newer 100 and 200 series koki. Link to comment
SONIC883_de Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 Thanks! Completely forgotten the Kato catalog for the Diagrams of formations.... Shame on me Link to comment
