"Celebration for preservation of Blue Train"

Blue Train...like Orient Express(from Poirot) and other famous limited ones


already retired due to the substitution for the bullet trains as


Hokkaido Shinkansen...which currently is the fastest transportation


between Tokyo and Hokkaido(not to Sapporo but realized in the


future) and the decrease of the passengers against the rivals


as daytime expresses and of course, Shinkansen...


 but...still so popular for the fans of railways and especially...


the people of the mid age who has the precious and envious memories


for those limited expresses with their desires for suite cars....


Of course, some of them are remained in certain areas as


exclusive expresses...possibly in the areas which are so popular


and eminent for sightseeing ones...



These ones..as the trains of Hokuto-Sei (the Great Bear)


which used to be the limited ones from Ueno, Tokyo to


Sapporo, Hokkaido....with lots of fame, support and love...from fans....


...were already out of service...despite their popularity....


However, by the tremendous and fervent efforts by fans and


supporters...the blue trains were saved from wrecking...


and finally arrived in the park in Hokkaido...to preserve them and


be open for visitors only on Sunday afternoon...
