Every detail, from the distinctive dual supreme wing shape front to the intricacies of the lights and symbol mark on the side, has been meticulously reproduced for the aficionado’s discerning eye.

Intricate Details

To add another layer of authenticity to your layout, we’ve integrated KATO’s original body tilting mechanism, accurately mimicking the inward tilt when navigating curves, just like the actual train. The N700S model also replicates the J3 organization prototype belonging to the Tokyo police station inspection vehicle office in 2020. The dual supreme wing shape of the model Shinkansen train, symbol mark in striking gold, blue band wrapping around the body, and unique underfloor cover are all captured in exquisite detail.

Smooth Operation

Our commitment to an enjoyable modeling experience continues with a power unit equipped with a flywheel for stable and reliable running. The LED head and tail lights mimic real-life behavior with both the upper and lower lights lighting up. Lastly, the N700S Shinkansen model is flexible and DCC friendly, which lets you tailor your layout to your unique preferences.
