Keihan Thomas & Friends Wrapping Trains - Fred_Pelhay - 07-15-2021

Anyone know how many of the Keihan Electric Railway trains they did with Thomas & Friends wrapping?

The last one on Muddy's picture is a Thomas Wrapping train, but technically it's not a Keihan train... It's the Takara Tomy Plarail SC-04 Fuji Kyuko 6000 Series Thomas Land Train

The Fujikyu 6000 series (富士急行6000系, Fuji Kyūkō 6000-kei) is an electric multiple unit (EMU) train type operated by the private railway operator Fuji Kyuko (Fujikyu) on the Fujikyuko Line in Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan.

But, there is another Keihan Thomas wrap - Plarail Thomas Keihan Series 10000 Wrapping Train 2017:

My favourite is Keihan 700 from the set with Thomas logo (the only set with Thomas logo that doesn't contain a Thomas character train but a commuter train), because the windows and doors are "real" (molded), and not just painted on the wrapping:

@Mister No…Aaaaack!! Every time I turn around there is something missing!! :/
Thank You! I will find it!
Yes I agree the box set model is most definitely the most unique and beautiful of all the Keihans for sure.

The one that is missing (Keihan 10000 2017) is the only one I don't have, because I don't really like it. All other wraps are much better. IMHO. Smile

... and there is also Keihan 600 (an earlier, but actually very similar type). It's even better - it has the whole front molded (with nice silver details). But, it is not Thomas wrapped; it's some sort of "support-your-law-enforcement-wrapping". Both 600 and 700 are older type 1 speed almost silent motor trains:

Thank you TRa!!


RE: Keihan Thomas & Friends Wrapping Trains - Fred_Pelhay - 07-15-2021

Thank you all! I only knew of the 2011 train set, the 2013 Percy wrapping train, and the 2017 wrapping train. It's so hard to find the rest online. I get a lot of contradictory sources.
