The No. 1 locomotive

The outmoded coach
Before, it was running in Tohoku-honsen and Banetsusai-sen.
There is memory which rided well from Kooriyama when going to Aizu (But not being the same form).
It gets on the limited express of "flooding" "echo"", saying the peak" "Japanese skylark" "being "NAHO"" and so on from Ueno station.
It transferred to the local train in Kooriyama station.
Because the good place of the coach doesn't have a motor
The sound which the wheel carves and the beautiful scenery became a pleasant harmony.

The packed lunch for travelers could be bought with the station on the way because the window, too, opened, too.
Exchanging a deepfreezing tangerine and so on each other among the persons who sat on four boxes
It was the train that it is possible to enjoy a form of conversation.
About 5 hours of chairs and supports for the back were firm from Ueno to Aizuwakamatsu and the limited express was the train of the admiration.

By the various guideboard which guides a destination in Ueno station in the past
It hung in a row. It is dear.
