昭和の国鉄播但線 生野の三重連～Showa-Era JNR Bantan Line – Triple-Header at Ikuno

This video looks back at the Showa era, focusing on the Ikuno area on the Japanese National Railways Bantan Line, known for its steep gradients and impressive steam operation. The mountain scenery recreates the atmosphere of the time, when triple-unit locomotives were in operation to transport special trains, mainly in winter. The draft and whistle of a steam locomotive echo through the mountains of Hyogo Prefecture, surrounded by rice paddies and deep forests. This is a snapshot of everyday life on the Bantan Line in the 1960s and 1970s, when steam locomotives still played a major role in regional transportation. We hope you can get a taste of the steam-powered atmosphere of the Showa era.
