Description: the shiki800 was one of 3 schnabel cars built by nippon sharyo for the major power transformer manufacturers of the japanese electrical industry.....first to be built, the 800 was constructed in 1973 and carried a 155 ton payload at 45 kph......when empty and collapsed, the wagon could travel at 75 kph weighed 67 tons.....the shiki800 lasted in service until 2019........... Micro Ace is one of the dominant triumvirate of n scale manufactures in Japan - Kato and Tomix both being better known outside of Japan....Micro Ace clearly markets the broadest line of locomotives and freight cars among the 3 and arguably features the finest detail work on their products..... i acquired this shiki800 set from a small reseller in japan who specializes coin collectibles and gives gives no meaningful evaluation of his occasional model railroading merchandise .....on arrival, the set's pristine condition allayed any concerns.......the wheel sets were clean.......the yo8000's tail lights were vibrant........the packaging is unsullied.... the model accessories include labels for the shiki800 itself, red reflectors for the yo8000s, and plastic joints which allow joining of the 2 halves of the shiiki800 with the load removed... \
