Parts and detailing

As with many MicroAce EMU sets, this model benefits enormously from the replacement of the standard Arnold Rapido couplings with Tomix TN couplings. Note that if doing this, the bogies will need to be rotated 180 degrees, otherwise the attachment which held the Arnold Rapido coupling will foul the Tomix TN coupling. This has been reported by MicroAce, see: 301系にTNカプラーを取り付ける際の注意事項.
