10-1672 GWR Class 800/3 9-Car Set KATO

The Class 800, introduced as a replacement for the old HST (High-Speed Train) under the UK’s Intercity Express Programme (IEP), is a vehicle developed by Hitachi. It was manufactured at Hitachi's Kasaoka Works in Yamaguchi Prefecture and the Hitachi Rail UK factory based on the company's “A-train” series concept. This bi-mode train can operate on both electrified and non-electrified sections. The model features a 9-car set of the Class 800/3, which includes characteristics not found in the previous 5-car sets, such as an inner-frame bogie, a simpler roof design for intermediate cars, and first-class cars in the middle of the train.
