Rokuhan T020-1 JNR SHINKANSEN HIKARI 1 12-CAR SET

The JNR 0-series Shinkansen was the first commercial Shinkansen train in Japan, which debuted on October 1, 1964 (Showa 39) when the Tokaido Shinkansen opened. This vehicle was the first in the world to exceed a maximum speed of 200 km/h in commercial operation, and it also greatly stimulated the development of high-speed railways in other countries such as France and Germany. The product is modeled after the 12-car "Hikari 1" train, which departed Tokyo Station at 6:00 a.m. as the first train to operate since the opening of the line. The coupler cover has no handles on the cover, as seen in the first and second cars in the early stages of operation, and reproduces the "light front" specification made of acrylic that glows faintly with the light leaking from the signal lights. The signboard on the side that was later removed will be expressed by printing. The vehicle case is in a sleeve, and this is a special set limited to the first production run. The minimum running radius is R195.
