Kato's "Starter Series" basic train line features a 4 car set - Metra that includes an MPI MP36PH Chicago Metra Locomotive #416, Nippon-Sharyo Gallery Bi-Level Metra Coaches #6070 and #6153, and Nippon-Sharyo Gallery Bi-Level Metra Cab-Coach #8507. The bi-level cars are based on the design concept of the original Santa Fe "El Capitan" Bi-level, inspiring double decker cars like Amtrak's Superliners and the Bombardier Bi-Level car used in commuter service. These modern Nippon Sharyo-built Gallery Bi-Level cars are the "figureheads" for local commuter service with their distinctive and colorful paint schemes. They can be seen operating in several states across the United States, such as Virginia and California.
The elegant, collector-friendly hanger style packaging contains an operating Kato locomotive and cars, making it an attractive package for enthusiasts. The locomotive and cab-coach have directional head and tail lights to accurately display the correct lighting pattern whether pushing or pulling. The cars have smooth rolling blackened metal wheels and electrical pickup to allow easy installation of optional interior lighting. These Chicago Metra licensed products are a great addition to any train collector's collection.
