[Actual vehicle guide]
- The Kiha 141 series is a diesel car that was introduced in 1990 to increase the transportation capacity of JR Hokkaido's Gakuen Toshi Line (Satsunuma Line), and was created by modifying the 50 series and 51 type passenger cars that were surplus at the time.
- There were the Kiha 141 and 142 types, which used the scrapped parts of the Kiha 56 type for their bogies, the Kiha 143 type, which adopted the drive system of the Kiha 150 type, and the Kisaha 144 type, which was an accompanying vehicle used in combination with these. .
- They were mainly used between Sapporo Station and Hokkaido Medical University Station on the Sapporo Line, but due to the electrification of the same section, many of them ceased operation, and the Kiha 143 type was diverted to the Muroran Main Line, as well as the Kiha 142, 143, A total of four Kisaha 144 type cars were transferred to JR East and maintained as passenger cars that also served as auxiliary power on steep sections of SL Ginga and in tunnels.
