[@SanchitPriyadarshi]

I really enjoyed it. After watching the first compilation video on the channel I was like why does something like this even exists, but now I see it has a lot of potential. It was really good!

You just put a huge smile on my face this morning! Thank you very much. 🥰

With these trains you will need to work on a bigger layout with more tracks and a dedicated high speed one ;D

[@timnewman1172]

I love your cantanary work... that is never easy, epecially in N scale! Beautiful trains, I wish we had some like in in North America(although the latest VIA trainsets look awesome!)...

The Kato mechanism is unmatched for smooth operation.

[@lindahurley-bruce7575]

The pan shots, among others, work really well!

Wow, I've never seen a model train go so fast.

Amazing models

Kato introduced a new, smoother starting engine that the Lyria benefited from. The pantographs are also well made (the Ouigo didn't have them, but I think you can change them via the KATO parts bank) As for the rest, it's KATO, it's well done, it's clean, the colors are right and the height of happiness, the interior with the seats is present. The next new model will surely be the TGV M.

In the start ot the video you can clearly see the difference in hight between the TGV and a normal 2 story train that is the only reason why they can use a two story train at all. The TGV does fit just barely underneath the bridge after Basel SBB. SBB realy has to upgrade the line to Saint-Louis and send the TER train’s to the main hall in Basel SBB. Today you have to walk about 500m from the old SNCF hall to the SBB hall. DB Regio gets the same treatment on the other side of the station 😢. This thing is happening in many other SBB station’s it’s very sad how SBB treat’s other railway’s.

2 things that always put me off Kato's TGVs - the gap between the power car and the first coach - and the lack of smoked glazing, which gives the coaches a bit of a 'hollow' look. I guess it would be possible to dismantle the coaches and spray them on the inside with smoked-glazing spray (which I've done successfully with a Mehano HO (obvs) OUIGO - improves the look no end). Not sure if it would be possible to fit a close-coupler between power car and coach without major surgery... call me picky but these things kinda bug me :) PS Your catenary is amazing! I wish I had that kind of skillset!

[@Nick-ui9lx]

where did you take the catenary poles? do you think they could be made from H0 cutted track ?measures 2.4 mm thick do you think it's too much? thanks

[@RailTime1786]

Where do you get the other train from?

[@YTnightspotter]
