Information
In the period when the steam locomotive was rapidly disappearing all over the country in October 1973 (1973), the express train of steam locomotive towing suddenly resurrected. The train goes down "Nichinan 3".It is an express train which passed through Sanyo Road from Kyoto, the inside of Kyushu Island crossed the Oita / Miyazaki south with the Nippon-hon main line and near 1,000 km to Miyakonojo. At the departure time in Kyoto it is an impressive organization of 13-car train, but on the way, we separated the sleeping cars 3 from each other and set it up for 10 cars. In addition Miyazaki separated the three cars of the seat car and became a 7-car train, C57 took over from DF 50, 50 km to the Miyakonojo of the final course, and attracted many fans to the sunny road during the SL boom. ("Nichinan 1" on the uphill train is a DF 50 tow.)Although it is a night express express train, even from the Oita arrived in the evening to the finished Miyakonojo, with the day-to-day main line of the day as the leg of the honeymooner. It was a train that runs for 20 hours and a half. After that, due to the extension of the Sanyo Shinkansen, it was abolished as an express train and transferred the role to the express comfort "comet", but as the express train of steam locomotive towing in the last of the country was called its name in the heart of the railroad fans I am leaving.
