● Item Introduction

Riding a Shinkansen bullet train is regarded to be a popular activity by overseas travelers to Japan. It is an almost established way of tour to land and enter into Japan at different airports and then crossing several regions by Shinkansen. Kato has prepared single top cars of popular Shinkansens or Narita Express as souvenirs which people can easily pick up in hand on their jouneys and feel the high qualitiy craftmanship of Japan.

We plan to release first of all the top car of "Series E5 Shinkansen", "Series E6 Shinkansen", "Series E259 NEX (Narita Express)" respectively in April and that of "Series E7 Shinkansen" in August.
