@404notfounrevo1 Actually, German and English model trains are popular even in Japan but those are gradually out of new model and repeat past products so collectors tend to look for novel ones like ES,PT,PL,CZ,SK or HU etc.
The same trend would be seen even in Europe.
@scapadtot I assume you wouldn’t be able to believe Japanese collectors want to get Spanish Suburban EMU but it shouldn’t be unexpected because some Spanishes bought Japanese ones in N scale from me.
