Meitetsu Koshido Station clay traffic

[bikkuri bahn]

While doing some study of the Mikawa Line, I came across a website with some pictures of a narrow gauge winch driven operation hauling clay tiles to the Meitetsu Koshido Station interchange.  These pictures were taken in 1976, but could have been taken thirty years earlier.  Just love the atmosphere at Koshido, especially the pics in the second series, very modeleable:

Koshido Station is now unfortunately elevated and enveloped in concrete, and the clay operation is long gone.

bb, where do you find these!  The small 750mm gauge lines fascinate me.  Awesome site in general, thanks!
