This was a really good episode. I think this narrator that they have used in some recent episodes really matches with the atmosphere of the show more than some of the presenters they have had. Every episode is also a treasure trove of scenery ideas. I also often spend a fair amount of time after watching an episode on hobbysearch to see what models have been made of the railway lines featured... so far I have resisted these temptations but it always surprises me how many models have been produced.

 

I was wondering if anyone still had copies of any of the older episodes they could share? I was specifically looking for the episode 'Autumn in Japan's northern island' which seems impossible to find anywhere, but any of the earlier episodes would be good. None of the older google drive links on this topic work anymore unfortunately.

Finally got to watch the Autumn in Akita program and really enjoyed it.  Though I did learn I was pronouncing Akita wrong ....

 

Ciao,

New Episode!

 

The Myths and Legends of Hiroshima and Shimane

May 7, 2022

May 8, 2022

 

 

We start at Hiroshima, the largest city in the Chugoku region, and journey pastoral landscapes through the Chugoku Mountains to Izumo, Shimane Prefecture. The towns along the way are alive with myths and legends from ancient times. Tales of the Kappa and other supernatural creatures defy scientific explanation. Kagura, which draws its stories from Shinto mythology, is performed in dedication to the deities. Japanese swords that are crucial in traditional events are still being made in the area.

Hi everyone

 

Does anyone have episodes from 2014 and 2015 seasons of Train Cruise? I can't find some of the episodes from those years anywhere online.
