bikkuri bahn posted a topic in Japan Rail: News & General Discussion
150 years of railways anniversary special event. 185 series traversing considerable freight line trackage in southern Kanto (Kanagawa Prefecture). Reservation only, groups of two or more. Would love to take this tour, but probably will sell out in seconds on 4/27. JR East Press release: https://www.jreast.co.jp/press/2022/yokohama/20220421_y1.pdf- 1 reply

651 series "Super Hitachi" revival to Yokohama May 30
bikkuri bahn posted a topic in Japan Rail: News & General Discussion
JR East, in commemoration with the 156th anniversary of the opening of Yokohama Port, is running a special train using the 651 series on May 30th from Mito to Ishikawacho Station in Yokohama and return. The train will use the Ueno-Tokyo Line and traverse the normally freight-only Takashima freight line between Tsurumi and Sakuragicho. It'll be interesting to see where the 651 series trainset will be stabled after dropping off its passengers at Ishikawacho Station before its return trip to Mito (Negishi Station sidings?)
