On the Tsugaru Railway in Aomori Prefecture, the winter season “Stove Train” began operation and many passengers enjoyed the warmth of the stove.

The Tsugaru Railway's “Stove Train” started operation in the winter of Showa 5 to start passengers warming up with a “Daruma Stove” that uses coal as fuel. It was.

On the first day, the first day of service, a commemorative ceremony was held at Tsugaru Goshogawara Station in Goshogawara City, and the performance of the Tsugaru Shamisen was performed. Then President Chojiro Sawada greeted, “Today is a little cold, and it was a nice day for the stove train. I want many people to enjoy it,” and the tape was cut.

About 150 people got on the first train one after another, and looked rarely at the burning stove, and tasted delicious slums and sake. A woman in her 50s who came from Kuroishi City, Aomori Prefecture, said, “It's nice to have a warm stove. I remembered my elementary school days and felt nostalgic.”

Tsugaru Railway's “stove train” will run every day until March 31 of next year on the entire line connecting Tsugaru Goshogawara Station and Tsugaru Nakazato Station in Nakadomaricho.
