--Tobu Railway's C11 No. 325 locomotive, which pulls the SL Taiju, is now available from TOMIX!
[Actual vehicle guide]
- Tobu Railway's SL Taiki is a steam locomotive train hauled by the C11 class that began operating between Shimoimaichi and Kinugawa Onsen in 2017.
- In 2020, the company purchased the No. 325 steam locomotive from the Mooka Railway, and in 2022, the No. 123 steam locomotive will begin commercial operation. Currently, the company operates with three steam locomotives.
- C11 No. 325 was manufactured in 1946 and was initially used at Chigasaki Locomotive Depot, then transferred to Yonezawa Locomotive Depot where it was used until 1973.
- After being scrapped, it was preserved in static form, but in 1998 it was restored to working order and was used as a towing locomotive for the SL Moka on the Moka Railway, together with the C12-66.
- It was transferred to Tobu Railway in 2020, and after adding an antenna and jumper plugs, it is now used as a locomotive for the SL Taiki.
- This locomotive was manufactured as a wartime model and had a square dome during the JNR era, but was changed to a normal round dome when it was restored to working order at the Mooka Railway.
- The passenger cars used for the SL Taiki are 14-series passenger cars purchased from JR Hokkaido and Shikoku, but in 2021, a new Ohate 12-series passenger car equipped with an observation room, which was modified from a 12-series passenger car, will be introduced and used together with the 14-series.
- For steam locomotive operations on Tobu Railway, the Yo8000 series is used together with the steam locomotive as a vehicle equipped with ATS.
