Im not sure exactly where on the I-400 this is but the Tracks are not railroad style tracks but construction channel.

This is everything that I have on the I-400. Im hoping that it will be of assistance to your librarys or Model Building.

I-400: Japan' Secret Aircraft-Carrying Strike Submarine

You'll want to get I-400 by Sakaida, Nila & Takaki. It offers the best reference work on these monsters that, like the Yamato class battleships before them, were another example of the flawed Imperial Japanese Navy strategy.

Just don't post a photo of the heads... ewwwwyuck!!! :wink:

Let me know if you still have issues subscribing to that site since I have a lot more where those two came from - my book folder exceeds 16GB which covers a lot more besides subs.
