Japan’s Craziest Train-Themed Restaurant? Real Train Parts & Seats! Railway Memorabilia | Hokutosei🚆

Thank you for riding with Choo-Choo Travel. Good Morning. We had a good morning. ？？？ What a familiar sign. This way, too. And the sea. There is a station sign in such a place! This is why we are here in Kamogawa, Chiba. Specialty Trolley ……… ？？？？ It says “dining car” on it.. There is a sign that reads “Hokutosei. It looks like it is about to start running. Special Express “Shinsetsu” Ishida Gyoki…?
Car 6 Reserved Seats…? I’m too curious: …… It has a whistle hole and a light. …… Dining Car …… be brave and enter. Is it on a train…? There is a map of the route posted… It still looks like a dining car. Seats are abundant on the railroad. Is this a bus seat…? The back of the room is full, so we wait for a “priority seat” to become available. In any case, there is no loose ends. Mm-hmm? Is that the fan I’ve seen on a train car? Please press the red button.” Oh! It’s movable! I didn’t realize they were linked! Excellent! In any case, railway-related goods are placed everywhere. There are too many points of interest for me to worry about. LOL. I can’t tell if it’s real information or a decoration. LOL! Many of them are Chiba-related, but that’s not all. Keikyu 2000 type seat! It looks like you can sit and eat here! Is this a price list for the Sendai area? Hats on the mesh shelves. Commemorative admission ticket for steam locomotive operation in 1987. You can feel the owner’s attention to detail. Luggage table in the car…? This seat looks fun too. What? The teppanyaki lid is an old ticket ticket machine sign! The size is perfect! I didn’t realize the curtains were also from the train!
(North Star bunk beds) I’m curious about every single train item. Is the plate also Orient Express? Route map of Tokyo and its suburbs circa 1987. Below are destination boards for various trains. JNR” = ‘Japan National Railways’ symbols are displayed everywhere. The return location is also as shown here. Oh, this is the light that station staff use to signal! Was this created in the image of a station in this area? This station attendant’s light is actually going to be used! In the event of an accident outside… He also had a chance to use an escape hammer, but he never used it. Let’s take a look at the reserved seats in the green car at the back. Oh! This one looks exactly like the one on the train! It seems to be a rarity that the seats of the former Series 0 Shinkansen have been changed. It was quite a challenge to install it here… But, to our surprise, it seems that he will rotate! I am surprised that the Shinkansen had swivel cross seats! They also have the table stored…but it seems difficult to get it out. The train exchange tablets are at stake. Blue Train magazine in 1993. Oh! Is this the North Star table lamp? These curtains belong to JR Kyushu! This is a Series 14 sleeper train three-tiered curtain! Some seats are in the front row of the Keikyu. And here is the main seat! Model trains are on display. This is the seat of the 0 Series Shinkansen Green Car! You can also recline! Excellent! Ashtrays are also provided. He also brought out a table. What kind of chair is this? Do you know? He said it is supposed to turn! Since we are here, let’s sit down. Nice! Ashtrays also seem to work! Emergency lights are also available. Even the screen shelf is real! LOL! Hmm? There is some magazine on the floor. Let’s pretend we didn’t see it. LOL! I can’t believe I can dine while loving the model trains. All right! Let’s order! (Late) The train is by my side when I am waiting, so I am never bored. You don’t see these vehicles very often nowadays. I feel the owner’s commitment. I still feel that many of the vehicles are associated with Chiba. Were there any vehicles that you were interested in? Please let us know in the comments! I guess I’ll take this one…. karaoke
(singing to taped accompaniment) train! Oops! Shaved ice is here! ($1.74) Conscientious price. The famous takoyaki (octopus dumplings) will be available soon! ($3.49) I have to drive, so I’ll have a Coke… tears Summer is here. ？？？？ The spoon was “Inaho”. Thank you for your wonderful spirit. Arrival of the mixed fry set meal! ($6.63) This area seems to be famous for horse mackerel. It was delicious and I ate it in no time! Satisfied! Oops. If you donate to the vehicle repair fund, they will sound the whistle! You can also get a set of hard tickets! Shears entry! Original hard ticket! Glad to hear it! Oh, the whistle of JR Hokkaido Kiha 54! Longer and bigger service! In summer, they use this steam whistle to notify diners on the terrace! They are connected from the compressor. This time, they will also turn the destination direction curtain for a great service! He said he would make it a “turnaround! Please enjoy this nostalgic directional curtain! He will guide us to the Kamogawa River at number 11! I miss the feeling of stopping one by one again. What a surprise, even the service whistle! Thank you! Thank you for your wonderful spirit of service! They are turned by a machine made by an electrician. He is the one who was at the Oi plant! If you look closely, you can also see this is a table that was in the car and has a bottle opener! Sashi”…the dining car! LOL! They ordered a rounded ceiling to create the interior of the car. Now, it’s time to get to the good part of the day. What a surprise, he will press the emergency button! Great service! Thank you very much! Stop by the restroom and leave. This place is also like a car interior! There is also a toilet seat seat! LOL! All the details are also railroad related! I also received my old loyalty card. Thank you, Station Manager! The fun time flew by. The price is $13.26 for such a meal! I would like to come back again! I never knew there was such an iron-rich restaurant in Kamogawa. We hope it will last for a long time, so please come to our store everyone! Rails were also placed! What line of rail would it be? We will continue our rail travel in the future. We look forward to seeing you on the next ride! Thank you very much!
