Specific Item Information: The Marunouchi Line, which assumed service as the first post-war subway line in 1954, is approaching its 70th anniversary in 2024.

The high-performance train, with its bright red body, white belt, and stainless steel sine curve (silver corrugated decor), as well as various new technologies, was later developed into the 400 and 500 Types and became the face of the Eidan subway system. While this item is a re-run, it will from now on have a slotless motor, ensuring even smoother operations. Accordingly, the item number, MSRP, and barcode of the Basic Set have changed. All other specifications remain the same as before.
Road Name History:
Tokyo Metro Co., Ltd. (東京メトロ Tōkyō Metoro), commonly known as Tokyo Metro, is a rapid transit system in Tokyo, Japan. While it is not the only rapid transit system operating in Tokyo, it has the higher ridership among the two operators: in 2014, the Tokyo Metro had an average daily ridership of 6.84 million passengers, while the other system, the Toei Subway, had 2.85 million average daily rides. The company replaced the Teito Rapid Transit Authority (帝都高速度交通営団 Teito Kōsokudo Kōtsū Eidan), commonly known as Eidan or TRTA, on April 1, 2004. Read more on Wikipedia.
Brand/Importer Information:
Kato Precision Railroad Models (関水金属株式会社 Sekisui Kinzoku Kabushikigaisha) is a Japanese manufacturer of model railroad equipment in N and HO scales. The Tokyo-based company manufactures models based on Japanese prototypes (such as the Shinkansen bullet train) for the Japanese market, North American prototypes for the North American market and European high-speed trains for European market.
The Kato (pronounced kah-toe) model railroad companies were founded by Yuji Kato, father of current president Hiroshi Kato, of the parent company Sekisui Kinzoku Co., Ltd.

The design and distribution of models for the North American market are handled by their U.S. subsidiary, Kato USA, located in Schaumburg, Illinois.
The design of special models for the European market is handled for some of them by their partner, Lemke, whereas the general distribution of Kato products in Europe is handled by NOCH; both companies are located in Germany.
As a result, some Kato European models are sold as Kato Lemke and others as Kato (alone).
