Before proceeding, please carefully review the following details.

[Product Name]

N Gauge KATO 2009
D51 “Namekuji” Steam Locomotive (Powered)

[Product Description]

This model represents the iconic Japanese steam locomotive D51,
specifically the rare and highly distinctive “Namekuji” (Slug) semi-streamlined variant.

The nickname “Namekuji” comes from the smooth, streamlined casing over the boiler,
a design applied only to early pre-war production units.
Its unique silhouette makes this D51 subtype especially popular among collectors.

KATO’s 2009 model faithfully reproduces the characteristic boiler shrouding,
detailed side rods and running gear, and finely molded exterior features.
The locomotive offers smooth running performance and working headlights,
making it suitable for both display and layout use.

Please check the photos for the type of couplers installed.
