Another great train video! Keep up the good work. It is hard to believe that there is so much rural area, in Japan. So the video's you make are very nice. I've watched quite a few. And yes I subscribed.

FYI As of July 2020 the Asa Coast Railway has just started work on converting the track to DMV operation (Railbuses using converted Toyota Coasters), from Awa-Kainan to Kannoura, and apparently as far south as Muroto. AFAIK During the construction there's a rail replacement bus service running from Mugi to Kaifu. I guess this video will go to the history archives.

Could anyone please explain the "tunnel" at 17:10? Thank you!
@alblgz5 жыл бұрын
That was probably a small hill there with the tunnel passing through it, and later it was dug out, or maybe collapsed by an earthquake, and the tunnel remains as there may be no particular reason to dismantle it.

It could have been not a tunnel, but another way to build a bridge -- you could use the same concrete elements as you did for a tunnel.

I started obsessing over this after seeing your question... when I watched the video I thought “huh, that’s really weird” but now that I see it isn’t just me, I had to look for myself. Alblgz (first response above) was probably right. I checked out the area in google street view and even if you’re traveling in the opposite direction on this train (you can see it in another video) you can tell that this was once a larger hill. Since flat land is a much sought-after thing in Japan, sometimes they have to make their own by shaving off the tops of mountains and filling in valleys to create more flat space... they have been doing this for years in the areas of Tōhoku that were affected by the 3/11 tsunami, to raise the ground level. It appears that this was once a larger hill, that was originally tunneled through... this train line (Mugi-sen) was originally built in 1913, over 100 years ago - and as the area around Kaifu station grew during the last century, it appears that they just removed part of the hill to create more land. A small part of this hill still remains, but again - if you look at it in Street View (particularly from the other direction) then you can see this better. My next trip to Japan will include some time in Shikoku... I may try this train line and walk around the area to see for myself. Or I might not. I don’t get out there too often but I do want to see this thing in person...

@@Rocket_scientist_88 FYI This little 'tunnel' is called the Machiuchi Tunnel (町内トンネル) and yes the surrounding hill was later dug away for development. Google image search the Japanese name and you'll find a picture of the tunnel before the surrounding hillside was removed. Apparently the tunnel was built in 1973, and they decided to remove the hill just 3 years later. Now the 'tunnel' is just left there as a historical curiosity.

Hi thanks for the video, I travelled this line while riding all the lines in Shikoku a few years back. I am a little confused, is there through working on this line, if so how far north do the Asa railcars go on the JR network, and how many trips do the JR railcars travel south, thanks for your responses, cheers Mark "Nori Tetsu"

I'm afraid going-through operation (JR cars to Kan-noura, ASA cars to JR Mugi) has been deprecated since last revision on March this year.
