Product Description
- The same author (Yuichi Terada) has published "The Evolution of Private Railway Electric Locomotives (Vol. 1/2)" in volumes 280 and 281, but this volume focuses on diesel and steam locomotives (the so-called revived steam locomotives) for non-electrified railways.
- This book covers all diesel locomotives operated by private railways that existed from the end of the Showa era through to the Heisei and Reiwa eras, although compared to JR, private railways only had one or two cars per model, meaning there is little comprehensive information available.
- In addition, there are a few private railways that have revived steam locomotive operations for tourist purposes (Mooka Railway, Tobu Railway, Oigawa Railway, etc.), so these are also included in the list.
- Many private diesel locomotives are colorful, just like their electric counterparts, so we plan to include 8 pages of color graphs at the beginning of each volume out of the 48 pages.
- The electric locomotive edition was divided into upper and lower volumes, so all the information was concentrated in the first volume, but this time there will be separate volumes for each region, so each volume will include a color page for the corresponding region.
- This also includes freight-only coastal railways, about which there is usually little information available.
