Thank you for sharing this. This is very cool. I didn’t know that this product existed. Not all Kato products are marketed in the U.S. I have ridden the streetcars in Hiroshima and Osaka.
Excellent video. Its a big help in deciding if i should go for Kato unitram. Just imagine if you have 2 of these and the map is joined together. Perhaps one day you can shoot a video of this Tram system with the Kato trains running on the fringe like say the commuter train or shinkansen. That would be cool. Also if only Kato had a moving bus system. Imagine that running inside the loop with the tram outside it and the trains on the fringe. Wow.
@@nihondensha8403 I finally got the set thanks to your video. Its cool with esp when you put up buildings. Only thing is its hard to make those trams move in my setup. Its like they feel light and you have to keep on ‘pushing’ them till they finally run. 😅
Question: Does it power both tracks at the same time? Can I power both tracks in opposite direction? In other words, if I put 2 trains on different tracks, can they run in opposite direction?
Is there really no wheels under the center support? I get how they can get away with that with a tiny model, but for a full sized tram that articulation joints surely aren't strong enough to hold the entire middle section up is it?
Yes, you can separate the straights completely from the roads, and in the curves there is a small pieces of asphalt remaining, to make them compatible with the switches
KATO has alway had innovative and quality products! Thanks for the video.
Thanks for your comment. Indeed Kato products are beautiful and high quality.

Thanks for your comment. Curiously there is the US version of this set with right hand drive streets :)

Thanks for your comment. I have seen somewhere online an adaptation of Unitram with Tomytec Bus System. It was great. Just search for that

I don't remember whete,where, there is a system where buses,etc.works on a similar system, very cool!
@@danbytp Was it this? This video incoporate the buses and trains. Mind blowing. ua-cam.com/video/jMiRxunr4EE/v-deo.html
Question: Does it power both tracks at the same time? Can I power both tracks in opposite direction? In other words, if I put 2 trains on different tracks, can they run in opposite direction?
Every track is feeded separately. They work independently, so you can run trams in opposite directions
Do the building sections have holes for wiring to light buildings and street lights? Thank you I have 2 my trams 1 red 1 blue
Hello, no. They don't have any system that allow lighting. You have to do it yourself
Is there really no wheels under the center support? I get how they can get away with that with a tiny model, but for a full sized tram that articulation joints surely aren't strong enough to hold the entire middle section up is it?
Hello. Yes, there are no wheels in the middle section.
Great video! Can the tracks and roadway pieces be separated? Thanks!
Yes, you can separate the straights completely from the roads, and in the curves there is a small pieces of asphalt remaining, to make them compatible with the switches
Hello - with it set out like this - how long and wide is it? I want to know if it fits in the space between a V11 and V14 loop - so about 450mm
Assembled size is 682 x 620mm
Thanks for uploading, this is fantastic. Very helpful, I want to buy one (or two?).
Is the Kato suply conected to VietNam use?
Hello, the power supply is 100-240VAC 50-60HZ. It should be compatible
Mega Cute!
Is Kato going to make switches ? they are hard to find
Hopefully. I'm also waiting for them :)
They make switches, i have several and still can buy them some places
Unitrack system
Nice
Question is kato track compatible with Tomix track thanks
The roundabouts are the wrong direction. They're anti-clockwise and the should be clockwise.
いいですね good ほしいなー
Can I get it in English?
In the past there was an American version, which also had right hand roads. But I think it's not available right now
@@nihondensha8403 Thanks.
Is this considered N scale?
Yes, it is N scale. You can run other N scale trains in the same track
@@nihondensha8403 sweet thanks for the response.
@@Quincy556 my pleasure
