Its a new month and I ordered new stuff from a new store.

I was surfing the net and visited a store that I haven't ordered from before. I ordered some train stuff from ModelTrainPlus its a Japanese store that sells only model trains. I ordered a Kato EF200 and Kato 10-1686 Red Wing 3 car commuter set. The new EF200 was only $35 USD oh my gosh!!!!!

Heres a link to install a decoder in the EF200

Two E351 Super Azusa's from Kato?

So it seems that there are two different versions of the E351 Series Super Azusa. There is 10-358 and 10-359 and 10-1342 there is also a corresponding 4 car set 10-1343 as well. I'm not sure what the differences are between the two sets but its quite normal for Kato to re-release a set to the public. 

I broke my new E351 power bogie 43041ZD1

That's right I didn't even get to run it and I broke it. I tried to install a decoder in it and didn't remove the bogie correctly and broke a pin on the power bogie that goes into the chassis. I've looked on the internet and no one has one in stock I've checked Hobby Search and Plaza Japan and will reach out to other English speaking Japanese shops.

This is the part I need https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10820630

Below is the power bogie and the broken side and the un-broken side. 

If you know of a shop that has these in stock please let me know.  

I got a Super Azusa addition 4 car set

I forgot to post that I purchased a Kato 8 car Super Azusa set lol.

I said why not I have the 8 car set I may as well get the add on 4 car set so that's showing up soon. 

Ive been plugging away at the DCC enclosure adding a couple of things.

I added some screws to the sides of the enclosure to secure the top and bottom portions together and keep curious eyes away from my DCC-EX Command Station. I also add the reset buttons although Ive never had to use them before I thought it would be a nice addition. I had to add some glue to the ends of the reset buttons because they are a hair short so adding some glue will lengthen them a little. The final additon to the case are feet not that the case needed them but its cool.
