Blue Plastic Tracks

My Hong Kong dealer came through for me yet again.





So excited to get this set because:

a.) It's out of print so not so common
b.) It's got a buddha
c.) It's got a sail boarder Plakid
d.) I plan to go to Kamakura in November and hope to ride this Enoden private railway to see the buddha at Kotoku-in and visit Enoshima Island.

OMG - thanks for translating. That's awesome.

That is a very kewl set, is it new? I have been seeking out one of those Wind Surfer PlaKids ever since I first laid eyes upon one. My mind is telling me that the Wind Surfer may have come in one other set but I am probably wrong and its exclusive to this set. I think Sunhuntin has one. I also see you scored a Tobu Spacia...great pick ups.

That is a fantastic, searchable, Plarail Data Base site you Linked to, great information and worth it to add to ones Favorites. https://www.ttdb.info/index.php

Super you may be thinking of the Pink PostPet Enoden set, as it comes with a surfer as well.

Yes it was new in shrink wrap. I believe it was a 2002 release.  If my guy gets another one I will get him to hold it for you.

There is another of these vacation 'tabi' sets that I am aware of:

Never seen this one in the wild though. The train looks brilliant.

Here's a little video:

I appreciate the offer Finno but I don't want the whole set only the PlaKid Wind Surfer.   and I do already have this version of the Enoden

Nice to see your latest acquisitions running on the Layout. Did the surf board and sail come in the box?

For reference. :-)
