The Series 923-3000 T5 Configuration, commonly known as Doctor Yellow, is a Shinkansen inspection train that gathers baseline data for track and overhead-line maintenance on the Tokaido and Sanyo Shinkansen. Its distinctive yellow livery makes it popular with Shinkansen fans, children, and general travelers. Retirement is scheduled for January 2027.
This Traveling N Gauge release recreates car 1, 923-3001, from the T5 Configuration. It offers an approachable way to keep the memory of the yellow Shinkansen at stations or along the line.
