C11 vs Oigawa Thomas vs C12

2 Replies, 2089 Views

This is a breakout from Mister No's Plarail Pics & Vids thread, starting about here.

The pictures show the new style Plarail C12 (KF-01, first appeared in a set in 2009), the Plarail Oigawa Railway Thomas (2014), and the new style Plarail C11 (S-51 SL Taiju, 2018). As observed by Super in the other thread, the same basic mould is used for all three, the differences being in the smokebox / funnel area, and the addition of Thomas's distinctive splashers.

The actual Oigawa Railway Thomas is C11-227 with cosmetic modifications.

Both C11 and C12 were built over the same period, 1932 - 1947, and by the same manufacturers, but the C11 was a longer, heavier, and more powerful 2-6-4T compared with the 2-6-2T C12.
