This is a representative Japanese sightseeing train where the C57 steam locomotive, affectionately known as the "Lady," runs about 63 kilometers from Shin-Yamaguchi Station to Tsuwano Station. The sight of it running with a powerful exhaust sound and black smoke is spectacular, and many people gather along the line to catch a glimpse of its brave figure. The passenger cars recreate the retro interiors of the Meiji, Taisho, and Showa eras, and stepping inside makes you feel as if you've slipped back to the golden age of railways. Looking at the peaceful rural scenery and canyon beauty outside the window while enjoying a bento or immersing yourself in the sentiment unique to a steam locomotive is a luxurious experience that impresses even those who are not railway fans.
