Showa village and mine on the Rumoi Railway in Hokkaido. Charles Small visited this railway in "Rails to the Setting Sun". The locomotive is (I believe) one of Rumoi's 2 exx-Kyushu Railway, ex-JGR Krauss 0-4-0Ts.

 

The resemblance of the building to American practice is uncanny, although quite expected...
