my small meitetsu collection

[Guest keio6000]

i am not a huge meitetsu fan though i do like it.  my collection is mostly tokyo.  still, i have a small meitetsu collection that will soon expand by the addition of a microace 5500 4-car red (scarlet) set.  i bought this before i remembered that i have the two 3700-series tomytec sets which are similar.  still, it's good to have a built set from microace.

 

my collection is vaguely 1980s and that's where it will stay. i dont have any interest in meitetsu's increasingly silver, increasingly personality-less lineup.

 

as you see, my tomix 7000 is from that series where they put the old (high) motor in the new-style case.  i believe they may have re-issued it one more time with a shorter motor.

 

the 3400 is a really classic train.  while also available in meitetsu red, the green is more retro.

 

probably the only other thing i might get from meitetsu is a modemo モ880形 streetcar, and even then i'm not so excited by the prospect.  i will not get a panorama car as i think it's ugly!  oh yes, i also like the 'grey door' 3500 series, but not enough to pay the high price greenmax is asking for them.

 

i also have a number of meitetsu buses, i think.   i will photograph some of my bus collection later.

 

you will notice that none of my meitetsu collection is longer than 4-cars.  since this is a minor part of my colletion, this is how it will almost certainly stay.

 

thank you for looking at my collection and sorry about the bad photo, taken with my ipad.
