Tsuyama: A Retro Train Journey Through Tsuyama Manabi Railroad Museum and Sakuhara Mineral Park

A full-day driving course that takes you through the major transportation landmarks of northern Okayama, from Tsuyama Manabi Railroad Museum with its impressive surviving fan-shaped engine shed to Sakuhara Fureai Mineral Park with its retro wooden station building and preserved railway cars. At Michi no Eki Kume no Sato, a giant Z Gundam about 7 meters tall greets you. For lunch, taste Misaki Town's famous tamago kake gohan at its original restaurant. A day filled with charming scenes that will delight train and vehicle enthusiasts alike—the slowly rotating turntable at the engine shed, the station house and platform echoing the Katakami Railway's legacy, and visits to michi no eki (roadside stations) in the mountains. Whether visiting with family or friends, you can fully enjoy a nostalgic yet fresh train journey experience.
