KATO ICE train with four Zimo decoders/sound limited run

Group:
Just saw it posted at N Scale Supply. https://www.nscalesupply.com/kat/kat-passengercn-ice.html Only 100 units will be available in the US. FWIW, I have ridden on this train in Germany many times. Very nice.

Kind regards,
Bill

Mods - maybe this should be moved to products or dcc? Was not sure where to put it.

I ordered mine from Reynaulds last week - should arrive soon. That should be a nice set!
 I noticed that Kato plug-and-play decoders are now made by ZIMO.  At least for the European market.

And yes, Product Discussion would be the ideal place for this  thread.

Zimo has the DCC best motor control I have ever seen for locomotives.  I am glad they are being used commercially in N scale products.  I have installed them for users at our club, and the slow speed control is amazing.
