JR Hokkaido Sekihoku Main Line "Special Rapid Kitami" service, Engaru to Asahikawa

[Sacto1985]

I should have posted this earlier, but YouTube member (and JNS Forum regular!) ayokoi recently posted a three-part zenmen tenbou video of a trip on the Sekihoku Main Line using the Special Rapid Kitami service from Engaru to Asahikawa Stations, filmed from a JR Hokkaido KiHa 54 DMU:

Note that before arriving at Shirataki Station in the first video, the train passes a couple of stations that became very well-known to railfans through various news reports.
