Kato eh? Good choice - I'd run more of them if I could afford to. My brother has one of their N-scale Shinkansen (Bullet train) sets which is amazing - silent, smooth, very quick (just what you want on a Shinkansen!). Enjoy! <br /> <br />My first HO loco would be the Athearn SP SD9 that I bought back in 2001. It's still as the factory built it at the moment - have just fitted and painted the handrails. I plan to fit a DCC decoder, Kadees (in place of the factory E Z Mates) and ideally a few other detail parts at some point, as it's one of the best locos I have in terms of running qualities - this thing will out-creep a P1K loco on DC control, so what'll it do under DCC with a BEMF decoder...[:D]
