Product Description

We will delve into the most core theme of railway hobbies, "phantom," and navigate the unknown, deep world.
From an unopened concrete bridge he captured in the mountains of Hokkaido while fearing brown bears, to a freight viaduct that now stands in pieces in the middle of a city, a locomotive shelter dug to hide steam locomotives during the war, a special infiltration recollection of a ``phantom'' sleeper car that was off-limits to the general public, and even a series of viaducts in Kyushu that were once completed but then dismantled and disappeared, he will unravel the reality of ``phantom'' railways all over Japan based on his own experience.
Even in today's world where information technology has been around for a long time, there is still a lot of interesting and exciting things to discover about railways.
