[About Furukawa Co., Ltd.'s Taki 29300]
- From its introduction until 1987, it was based at Ashio Station and was used to transport concentrated sulfuric acid to Yoshiwara, Gakunan Fujioka, and other areas.
- After the Ashio Line freight trains were abolished, it was mainly used on the Sotobo Line until the mid-1990s, and then was used to transport concentrated sulfuric acid between Kosaka and Akita Kitako Port, based at Kosaka Station on the Kosaka Railway, together with the same type of car from Dowa Mining, until freight service on the Kosaka Railway was abolished.
- In its later years, the company's Taki 29300 was mainly active in the Tohoku region, but when it came time for inspection, it would arrive mixed in with a special freight train coupled with various tank cars via the Uetsu Main Line, Joetsu, Takasaki, and Musashino Lines to Kawasaki Freight Station, or via the Musashino Line and Tohoku Main Line to Koriyama.
- We would like to introduce you to a vehicle that is perfect to go with the Taki 29300.
