 Since japanese railways are using 1067 mm track gauge, which scales down to 12 mm or H0m gauge, other H0 sized rolling stock should not meet japanese on the same track and therefore it should be OK to use H0j scaled trains. Coincidently H0m track size is the same as TT gauge: 12 mm. This makes the things easier, because H0m track is not widely available on the market, but TT is. Since japanese railways are using 1067 mm track gauge, which scales down to 12 mm or H0m gauge, other H0 sized rolling stock should not meet japanese on the same track and therefore it should be OK to use H0j scaled trains.

-Inspired by Japan trip, I want to model a part of [[railway_modelling:iga_line|Iga Line]] near Kyoto. Rolling stock brought from the trip includes several models of KiHa series DMUs. I will begin with it, integrating them into layout.+Inspired by Japan trip, I want to model a part of [[railway_modelling:iga_line|Iga Line]] from Mie prefecture near Kyoto.

 But prototype line operates 200 series trains, which I will try to replicate from scratch later. But prototype line operates 200 series trains, which I will try to replicate from scratch later.
