Manufacturer description
The LNER Azuma train set is the perfect modern passenger train set, with the train itself a replica of the Class 800 train that was introduced to the East Coast mainline in 2019. These trains were designed and built using Japanese bullet train technology that offers a faster, smoother and quieter journey. The Class 800s are bi-mode powered, which means they run on electricity where the line is electrified or powered by a diesel engine where the line is not, making them versatile on the modern rail network.
The train is made up of a drive unit at each end - one is the power car, motorised to power the train, and both have directional lighting. At the forward end, the lighting is white, and it is red at the rear. Finally, there's a passenger coach in the middle. It also comes with an oval of track with a siding, a buffer stop and a controller with a mains power supply.
