Sekisui Main Line/Kato Railway Park

[Dillon]

I'm sure we all know about the Railway Park and its opening this year, the link of the site, https://www.kato-oo9.com/en/sekisuiml, I'm excited about this, I could see this being very popular for regular tourists and railfans, and maybe we'll get a Japan Railway Journal segment on this.

 

Though, I'm a huge fan of two-foot gauge and a big follower of RASS(羅須地人鉄道協会), their little tiny workshop has built Oscar(https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=849972353797277&set=pcb.849983143796198), an British influence 0-4-0t saddle tank engine for this new railway in 2023. 

 

This is exciting.

If I’ve read this right, the railway will begin running on June 9. I won’t be going though, as I’ll be in Hiroshima that day. Maybe someone closer to Tokyo might?
