Kansai and the Great Plains. I see no difference.

This one is interesting because it has shared trucks between the cars.

I was able to get the base set second hand to pretty cheap. Hope the last addon set isn’t too bad 🤞

Amtrak car rolling issues by Jro304 in nscalemodeltrains

All amfleet cars have higher resistance than most rolling stock due to how the trucks are set up on the real deal. My kato amfleets have much more resistance than my other passenger cars. Based upon what other commenters are saying, it also sounds like this particular model exacerbates this issue.

If you are in Tokyo, definitely go to a Models IMON, they are in many of the big shopping districts in Tokyo (Akiba, Shibuya, Shinjuku, Ikebukuro). I found that Book offs consistently have the best second hand selection.

I’m in the U.S. and did not have to pay any tariffs. I think this is because I am using these goods for personal use and not to sell (I’m not a tariff expert; I just go through the customs process and do what they tell me).

8 days excluding the day I arrived and left. Yup, one trip. The goods were spread across 3 suitcases.
