Only one Real Class in this release? I do like that these Real Class releases have window glazing.

When I first saw your tip on the Mickey Mouse Speed Express I was all excited about a new Disney train until I saw it as it too similar to two other releases. Wonder if 'Speed Express' means it has something new as far as speed?

Thanks Dr Chris. Still vacationing (on holiday to you 😁)
Plarail Scenic Color Rail Kit ~Flowers and Railways

This new release (Feb 2024) will certainly appeal to those who want the color pink in their Layouts. This set also includes, exclusive (I think), Pink Ramped Curve Rails.

For anyone interested in the 2 newly released Sumikko Gurashi Wrapping Trains, here is a video. These are both in the 'ES' Series which have a different motor/chassis and the small middle coach,

I really like the guy who presents these Plarail trains. He always talks with such enthusiasm! As for the trains themselves, it's a real shame that they're SE series. They could have been really nice commuter trains, if they had been released in the "normal" series.

Still, I'm pleasantly surprised that at least the customer doesn't have to apply all those stickers, of which there are quite a few - the train comes with factory-applied stickers, as seen in the video.
