Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Plarail and model train systems like N-scale?
TOMY Plarail is designed especially for young children and for those who love the nostalgia of kid-friendly model train building, with simpler designs, larger pieces, and their own tracks. Other model train systems, such as N-scale lines, are best for adults and older children due to their complexity and smaller pieces.
Are these trains appropriate for children?
These trains are ideal for children and can also make for great gifts! Additionally, any TOMY Plarail designs feature friendly characters that kids love, such as Thomas the Tank. Please check the specifics for age appropriateness, and feel free to contact us with any questions!
Are Japanese toy trains compatible with other international train sets?
Overall, they are, as long as you keep to the same scale, such as N-Scale or Z-Scale. Sometimes, there can be a trickier fit when going between brands or internationally. Please visit our blog for more ways to make sure your Japanese toy trains run as smoothly as the real things!
Can you guarantee that your model train merch is authentic?
We guarantee authenticity for all of our products because we work directly and exclusively with the top Japanese brands. It’s why we’ve been bringing the best of Japan to the world since 2004, with thousands of rave reviews to prove it!
