Custom or HO??? - Super - 04-20-2020

Interesting trams, is it a custom with a Plarail Advance chassis or is this an HO model with battery (LINK) that can run on a blue rail?

according to the youtube video description, it appears it is using a plarail advance chassis
I used the google translate and I got the following translation:

Remodeled Plarail Advance is Hanamaki Electric Railway's Deha 3. Only with Plarail Advance, you can pass each other's last track, but Hanamaki Electric Railway seems to be a single track.

The only battery operated train in HO i am aware of is built by Atlas.    HO gauge should be wider than Plarail advance.

Here is a video showing an Atlas battery operated HO scale Amtrak.

Wish the maker of the video would have at least shown either the inside or the bottom of the train or a little more information on what they did.

I love streetcars and those are just too cool!

Bonus points for the C58 SL Ginga in the background. That’s still on my Plarail want list.
