Sagawa + Hokuetsu Express

Sagawa will start transporting parcels in a dedicated car, this autumn between Uragawara and Muikamachi. With the demise of the Ltd. Express trains, Hokuetsu Express tries to balance this financial and schedule gap with this new parcel service. This will be the first time a 3rd sector operator will have a (dedicated) parcel train. I bet we can expect a Tomytec release of this dedicated train if this proves to be a success with fans! It's most certainly a very charming idea.

Fun to see postal trains rising back from the ashes!
