Kato will produce the Thalys PBKA which is a renowned European high speed express train.

While the PBA released by Kato in October 2020 is dedicated to the operation Paris (P), Brussels (B), Amsterdam (A), PBKA operates Paris (P), Brussels (B), Köln (K), Amsterdam (A). Unlike PBK, PBKA is characterized by the round formed top locomotive. The prototype for the Kato model is the current new paint scheme version which appeared in 2016, the 20th anniversary year. The top of model train is made connectable with a drawbar to another train, allowing the combination with PBA or another PBKA.

After departing from Paris, PBA and PBKA separate at Brussels, heading for Holland and Germany respectively.

Put it together and enjoy with Kato’s other European models such as TGV in service in France, Eurostar extending into Paris and ICE trains speeding along in Germany.
