Product Description
──More than 80 years have passed since the opening of the JR Bus Tohoku Shimokita Line
Set of Ominato Branch's JNR reproduction bus and Ninohe Branch's current livery bus now on sale!
In 2024, JR Bus Tohoku's Shimokita Line (nicknamed the Shimokita Seaside Line), which connects Tanabu, Ominato Station, Kawauchi Town, and Wakinosawa Government Office, will celebrate the 80th anniversary of its opening in 1943 as a Ministry of Railways-operated bus between Tanabu and Kawauchi Town, and between Kawauchi Town and Mutsu Wakinosawa.To commemorate this, JR Bus Tohoku has begun operating a ``JNR reproduction bus'' equipped with a headmark and emblem from the JNR bus era at the Ominato Branch Office, which is in charge of the Shimokita Line.
The interior of the train has also been planned by volunteer employees of the Ominato Branch, and posters displaying valuable records such as the Shimokita Line timetable from the days of the Japan National Railways and images of the towns along the line when two-man trains were in operation in the 1960s. There is also an exhibition of stop signs and bus information boards from the time of the Japan National Railways, which were used on the Abejo Line (Kawauchi-cho to Yunokawa Onsen), which was once in operation.
This set will be produced as a set of two buses, one featuring a JNR reproduction design and the other featuring a current JR Bus Tohoku route bus.
Please look forward to it!
