Description

●The "SL Winter Wetlands" is a winter-only tourist train that runs between Kushiro and Shibecha on the Senmo Main Line. It is the only SL train currently operating in Hokkaido, and is operated with a series of passenger cars, including the "Tancho Car," in which the seats are arranged facing the windows so that you can feel the great nature of the Kushiro Wetlands up close, and the "Stove Car," which has a Daruma stove installed inside the car. The locomotive, C11 171, was once preserved in a park in Shibecha, but was revived as a working preserved engine in 1998. It has been used to tow various event trains in Hokkaido, and is currently used exclusively as a traction engine for the same train. It is also characterized by the fact that it drives in reverse on the return trip.

◆ Hokkaido's active SL train is now available in N gauge. In addition to the C11 171 single item and the 5-car passenger car set, a specially designed locomotive + passenger car set will also be released at the same time as a specially planned item. You can enjoy it together with the vehicles in use on JR Hokkaido and the SL trains operated on other JR lines.
