The Unitrack Advantage:

When it was first introduced to the Japanese model train market in 1957, Kato UNITRACK was revolutionary because it provided the convenience of a snap track with none of the drawbacks – the patented Unijoiner clips hold rails tightly together but are easily disconnected, allowing modelers to reliably assemble and disassemble their track sections over and over and over again, without worrying about loosening joints, breaking clips, or lessening the electrical conductivity between track segments!

While much in the hobby in the last 50 years has changed, Kato UNITRACK has remained THE ideal track system in both N and HO scales for modelers looking for reliability and ease of use; whether building fully detailed scenic layouts or temporary setups that can be operated around a Christmas tree or a dining room table!

Track:

Each Kato HO Scale Starter Set Contains a 7.7 x 4.5 oval of HO gauge Unitrack, including a track feeder, a road crossing and rerailing track, and a book of directions for additional layout plans.

Power:

Kato’s included Power Pack SX is powerful but simple to use, with keyed & color-coded connectors and an easy-to-understand control system, making it suitable for modelers of all ages. The Power Pack SX can also be upgraded with optional alternative power supplies for modelers looking to expand their train operations and run bigger and larger trains in either HO or N scale, so you don’t have to worry about it becoming obsolete as you expand your layout!

Trains:

Katos Starter Sets includes one of our highly detailed HO P42 models. One of the most reliable locomotives in the market the HO P42 is sure to run for a long time! Coming with one Viewliner II baggage car and superliners to make a full train you can run prototypical consists just with your starter set!
