E233 Series Chuo Line

[Guest bill937ca]

One difference between model railroading in Japan and elsewhere is how fast new rolling stock appears on the market.  If I'm not mistaken, the E233 Series have only been on the Chuo line for a year or so.  Kato has a new model out, but is interesting is that a major online dealer has put a limit of one model per customer each the basic set and the add-on set.

The E233 series is not new itself.  E233 being on the Chuo line is new.

Oops, my mistake. I confused the Series 233 with Series 231.  Series 233 is new.
