Kato Series M250 Super Rail Cargo (U50A Container) Additional Eight Car Set (Add-on 8-Car Set)

Since I have the A-B set for the Kato Super Rail set I may as well get the 8 car Add on set. There's an auction on Yahoo Japan that I have a stake in and hope to win wish me luck. The three sets, 10-1418 + 10-1419 + 10-1723 comprise a complete Kato Super Rail Cargo 16-car set.

Which one do you like better?

DZ126T and Lok-Sound Micro 5 Decoder in KIYA97

There is no room in the cab of the KIYA97 so I went looking for alternative locations. The only other area was the underbody of the KIYA97. I had to Dremel away a small portion of a detail but that was it now comes the routing of the wires stay tuned. I also added magnets to the cab and the body of the KIYA97 to secure the cab.

Update on the Super Rail Cargo set

Today I proxy bid on the Kato Super Rail Cargo sets 10-1418 & 10-1419 through RG-ROKKO and won. It's a great deal, I'm embarrassed to say how much I paid for it although it's used even these sets can command a high fee. I have this and some other nice goodies hopefully showing up next week. Below are some updated pics from the shop owner.
