Doesn't look quite right, does it? I love it when this happens. There's a bargain to be had for someone here.....

.... and that someone would be me. Look what just arrived, box and all.

But, but, if you look at it while squinting and not wearing any glasses, it maybe, just maybe looks like the East i?

Oh who am I kidding lol 😂 What train is that even supposed to be anyway? Can't say I recognise it, but considering I own an East i myself, it definitely isn't that lol 😂

@Super @chrisjo

Had I been paying attention and looking at the pictures yesterday, I'd have noticed exactly what train, and where it's from lol 😂

It clearly says on the front 'Puyuma DX Set' with a picture of Taiwan as well, so there's the mystery solved - It's the Taiwan Railway Administration (TRA) Puyuma Express, which is a special express unit built for the TRA by Nippon Sharyo.

I'm going to assume this was possibly a Taiwanese exclusive, but then again there is also Japanese text on the box so I'm wondering if it was also sold in Japan? Certainly wouldn't be the first Taiwanese themed Plarail set as there was one based on the Taiwanese Shinkansen (a heavily modified version of the 700 Series from Japan IIRC).

Looking at this video, one could surmise that this Puyuma DX Set was released in 2012-2013
