Description

 

-The sleeper express "Hamanasu" is a sleeper express train operated by JR Hokkaido that ran from Aomori to Sapporo via the Seikan Tunnel. It was introduced when the Seikan Tunnel opened in 1988, and was a popular train that combined cars with a variety of facilities, including B-class sleeper cars, carpet cars, and dream cars (reclining seat cars) with reserved and unreserved seats, but was retired with the opening of the Hokkaido Shinkansen in March 2016. The basic train consisted
of a 7-car formation consisting of 5 14-series seating cars and 2 sleeper cars, but during busy periods, it was also seen being used in a maximum of 12 cars by adding more cars.
