Product Description
--The 9600 series, the last steam locomotive of the Japanese National Railways and affectionately known as "Kyuroku," is now available from Tomix!
[Vehicle Guide]
The 9600 series was a type of steam locomotive that the then Ministry of Railways began manufacturing in 1913 as the standard type for mainline freight trains. More than 700 units were produced, making it one of the representative steam locomotives of the Japanese National Railways.
For over 60 years since its introduction, it was mainly used for freight trains and shunting, and until March 1976, it was used for shunting at Oiwake Station, which was the last regular operation by a steam locomotive of the Japanese National Railways.
