Thank you very much for considering your purchase. Before proceeding with the checkout process, please review the following details. Product Description KATO N Scale 7008-4 DD51 Late Model Cold Region Type JR Freight A-Upgrade Version The DD51 is a mainline diesel locomotive that represents the Japanese National Railways (JNR), with 649 units manufactured starting in 1962 (Showa 37). For snowy regions including Hokkaido, the A cold-region version equipped with distinctive rotating windows was introduced. Among the units transferred to JR Freight in Hokkaido, those that underwent partial refurbishment—replacing only aging components—were repainted in the A-upgrade color scheme: a blue body with cream-colored front ends. These refurbished units began appearing in 2004 (Heisei 16). In their final years, these locomotives were concentrated at the Washibetsu Depot and were all retired in 2014 (Heisei 26), replaced by the next-generation DF200 locomotives.
