About Viaduct Stations
Viaduct or elevated stations are a common feature in urban railway systems worldwide, particularly in dense city centers where space is limited and street-level operations are impractical. These elevated structures allow trains to operate above street traffic while providing convenient passenger access through ground-level entrances connected by stairs or escalators. KATO’s viaduct station system captures this authentic urban railway architecture in N scale, allowing modelers to recreate realistic metropolitan railway scenes.

Assembly & Customization
The entrance structure comes as a plastic kit requiring assembly.
