About Japanese National Railways (JNR) Type C62 2 by MBK-PBK
Type C62 were the largest and fastest steam passenger locomotives to run in Japan. The first engine was built in 1948 and totally 49 were produced.
This year 2022 is the 150th anniversary of railways in Japan. I decided to build type C62 because I would like to celebrate the anniversary by making the most popular steam engine in the Japanese railway history (I believe).
