Also one in the town of Kamioka near Toyama/Hida/Takayama.  The rail bus still runs on same days.  Website has an English section also for those whom Japanese skills are poor like me.

Just showed this to my wife.  She can pedal and I can ride!  One more item on my list of places to visit in Japan.
