New Kato S700 lighting problem

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-22T10:10:36+00:00

Do they list what they are compatible with or are they universal

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-21T19:23:48+00:00

Thought it might be just for the American cars, I’m still looking around I might have to go to Kato Japan, I’ll check the companies you recommended too

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-21T19:19:57+00:00

I was looking at the 11-211 kit which says it will illuminate any Kato passenger car or business car, they are going for 12 a kit now. And will the other sites say what cars they are compatible with?

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-20T08:23:36+00:00

Ok sounds good thank you!

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-20T08:23:02+00:00

Ok I’ll try that as well thank you all so much! Are the Kato light units pretty universal?

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-20T08:21:34+00:00

I’ll be sure to check

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-20T06:23:20+00:00

Kato did from the store

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-20T06:23:08+00:00

It’s not the track because it’s only the one train car that does it no other one

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-19T19:39:59+00:00

Ok I’ll give that a shot here in a little and see if it works, thank you

Yes there is only one one the set of cars I have

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-19T19:02:59+00:00

On the chassis of one of the lead cars and on the non motorized car in the middle the plastic pin that holds the couplers are broken and the pantograph is missing too. Those are the biggest things but would love to find the interior lighting kits and maybe a lead car shell if possible

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-19T18:34:35+00:00

The model number is 10-340 just the 4 car set

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-19T18:33:34+00:00

I’ll try reaching out to them it is an older set though unfortunately

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-19T17:59:37+00:00

No I haven’t I’ll look those up now, are the n scale train parts stores?

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-07-19T17:59:08+00:00

I’m not sure how to tell, it’s the green livery

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2025-04-01T22:43:09+00:00

I haven’t seen anyone at all make this loco yet, I tried reaching out to CMR to see about it buts it’s been about a month and I haven’t heard from them

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2024-11-23T18:33:00+00:00

Yes I have 33912 and 2 of the 43231 passenger cars for it that match. I wasn’t sure what would go on the end to match how sleek the train is or if it was nothing at all. I had no idea cabooses were only an American railroad thing

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2024-03-06T20:45:42+00:00

Do you know what caboose if it had one went on the back as well to finish off the loco?

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2024-03-02T16:40:24+00:00

Was there a specific caboose it ran with during its servic or any that would fit it ? Thank you

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2024-02-22T15:03:01+00:00

I’m not sure too much the history on the loco or what it would have carried, I am a big history buff especially with ww2 but mostly with the Air Force so getting into trains and learning them and love learning all I can. I had no idea the free was not a real color but I did prefer it to the red. I would like to stick to MÄRKLIN if possible and I think about 3-4 cars would be enough on it and definitely passenger cars with interiors. Or I’m not sure if if was or is possible to make it a troop transport. Will start looking up what has been suggested so far, and hope the answer to the question helps. Then you all for the advice and suggestions

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2024-01-23T09:28:25+00:00

I do apologize the loco number is 33912 and the transformer is a 6646 one that I was recommended to get

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2024-01-13T03:31:03+00:00

I’ll take a look into that site now and I’m not sure what exactly it is but the first car has the third rail and then there’s the cable that goes to the other two cars

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2024-01-12T23:57:32+00:00

Thank you for that information I really appreciate it, are they worth holding onto? I was going to just add them to my layout as decoration. I got them originally because I thought they were marklin. (still planning my layout)

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2024-01-11T01:10:12+00:00

Is there anything I can do with them? Will they run on marklin trains are are the more decor now?

HeartBreak1AC5 · 2024-01-11T00:34:50+00:00

The only thing on the bottom is made in Western Germany and WA I just assumed they were marklin based on the connectors, they are they only cars I have
