bill937ca Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) The Nishitetsu doesn't get much attention because of its isolated location, but it is one of Japan's 16 major private railways. 8000 series limited express: 3000 series 5000 series 7050 series Edited July 27, 2013 by bill937ca 2 Link to comment
westfalen Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 I finally got around to riding the Nishitetsu in 2011 when I 'coloured in' the entire system, it has quite a bit of character. My favourites are the 5000 series with their 'pretty' paint scheme and wrap around cab windows on the drivers side. Link to comment
bill937ca Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 And there are branch lines with short trains like the Kaizuka Line. Link to comment

westfalen Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I spent some time at Ogori. A few of my photos from November 2011. Is that the world's narrowest platform? 1 Link to comment
cteno4 Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 LOL looks like you faked the photo like those shorty train Picts! Jeff Link to comment
ToniBabelony Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Nishitetsu has surely some interesting and inspiring sections! Glad this railway gets some attention, since it certainly is worth more! Link to comment
