Delayed?!? Great catch! It's cool to see such trains still in service.

An hour late in Japan?? Whoever is responsible for this better be ready to leave the country...
On a more serious note, the train colors resemble the Hiawatha. Looks very pretty!

Go,
I visited Japan many times in the 1990's, these were one of my favorite types of locomotives. They really represent a standard of excellence for Japanese industrial design at the mid century point. I knew they were somewhat old engines, but I never knew exactly how old they really are? 1950's or 1960's? Brings back some nice memories. - Steve Crise
