JR DD51 Hokutosei Color
Information
●The DD51 type locomotive was introduced in 1962 as the main diesel locomotive for non-electrified main lines. At its peak, there were 649 units produced, and variations for cold and warm regions, and passenger and freight service were created during the mass production process. The DD51s that played an active role in passenger transport in Hokkaido incorporated the image of the "Hokutosei" sleeper express train, which was created with the opening of the Seikan Tunnel in 1988. From the summer of that year onward, all units adopted a blue No. 20 paint scheme with a gold stripe and the Hokutosei logo on the cab.
