●"TWILIGHT EXPRESS Mizukaze" is a cruise train that travels around Western Japan, which began operation on June 17, 2017. Inheriting the tradition of the "Twilight Express," it was developed with the concept of "a hotel running through beautiful Japan" to promote the charm of the areas along the line and become a train that represents Japan. It is a 10-car diesel train, and is the first train in JR West to feature a full-scale hybrid system.
◆The 87 series "TWILIGHT EXPRESS Mizukaze," a cruise train that is mainly active within the JR West jurisdiction, will be commercialized in an affordable set configuration. You can enjoy it together with the various trains that you can see all over Western Japan.
