This listing is for SIX N-scale container lifter / container port vehicles.
You get 6 identical units at a great low price. wow!Each is brand new in blister packaging.The 6 come in a light cardboard outer box which, while new, is a bit shopworn. The inner blister packed individual units are brand new.CONTAINERS ARE NOT INCLUDED WITH THIS SALE. THIS IS JUST FOR THE VEHICLES. Use your own Kato, Farish, Tomix, Tomytec, etc containers.Makes for an awesome container port or container terminal!
The container lifter vehicles are perfect for an n gauge layout with containers. They are branded as being sold by “TCM”, which is the maker of the actual real-life vehicles. The quality of the vehicles is roughly similar to the Tomytec or Bandai working vehicles collection, but the actual manufacturer appears to be Fujimoto Hobby. The overall quality is quite good and they look very nice. The lifting bit is movable up-down and expandable left-right so that it can “hold” a number of containers in a number of positions. In practice, it holds some N gauge containers perfectly, others require a bit of blue tac.
Some light assembly is required. In practice, maybe 10-15 minutes to do a good job. In theory it’s glueless, but I’ve found that using a bit of CA glue to get the various fixed pieces such as railings to fit is the best way to go. A pack of stickers is included – a few of the stock images that I have used to illustrate this show the model as assembled but without the sticker on. I’ve seen some people then further weather these to really make them look great. Out of the box, they are Japanese-market (high) quality items.
Looks equally in place in British, American, Japanese, and European layouts. Anywhere there are containers, this will look fine.
