4K cab view - Goodbye, Kisuki Line Okuizumo Orochi Train Izumoshi to Bingo-Ochiai, Hiroshima pref,JP

The Okuizumo Orochi is a tourist train operated by the West Japan Railway Company on the route between Shimane and Hiroshima prefectures in Japan.
These trolley trains have been operated by JR West since 1998 to promote the use of the Kisuki Line.
Due to the ageing of the rolling stock, the service is scheduled to end on 23 November 2023.
The Kisuki Line also has extremely few passengers, so its abolition is constantly discussed.

Thank you for this great video.I really enjoyed the nature, it's a pity I've never been to Japan

[@tjamanirlong6159]

this video really makes me think if we are also going backwards in life. just like buildings and trees are passing us in the video and get further and further away from us just like our past but we cannot see were were going or what appears next in life just like this backwards train ride.

[@Kochiha]

So many goodbyes lately...I hope some of them can be saved in the future.

[@wandajackson3410]

A very long journey that not only entertained you with driving noises and the hum of the engine: in the background you could always hear an entertaining voice of women, children and men 😊 Although I didn't understand a word, from the laughter everyone enjoyed the trip - including me 👍 Thank you very much for showing this wonderful landscape and the friendly train 🙏 by the time I post this here the line will probably already be closed as you announced in the video description 😲

[@MsKohlensack]

A great video and a great train route! Thank you for that!

[@FalconXE302]

It is sad no matter where in the world a train is withdrawn from service to the public. Even of only 2 or 3 people use the services, this means the service is important to at least some people.

[@andronzero]

Wonderful video! It's very good that you don't use an ultra-wide lens!

ああ汽笛の響きが胸を締め付ける♪

Great video!

44:57 bird meeting disrupted 🤣

[@bbrauer5]

This would make a great heritage railway - steam locos - a dinner train. Hope something can be done to save the line.

[@sellier-bellot22]

Like in England ? LOL

今後一切奥出雲おろち号の活躍が見られなくなるのが寂しいです…

[@zuruisakana]

Tack!

[@AUNZRAILFAN]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video.

잘 보고 갑니다

[@penjincho6149]

みん鉄（みんなの鉄道。フジテレビONE）やかつて放送の鉄道番組では馴染み深い列車だっただけに、いまは「長い間ありがとう」とか「お疲れさまでした」等の言葉しか出てこない。 同時に木次線（全線でなくても良い）にて新しい観光列車が登場するのを期待してる。

[@user-ub6dq9dj2v]

🎉😊

[@DIGINB00]

これに代わるのが肝心の区間を走れないポンコツ性能の役立たずで大丈夫なのだろうか。個人的には色違いのJRW版雪月花を投入して、この線に限らず自由に使える汎用観光列車を実現してほしい…

[@sellier-bellot22]

Quite a jungle out there ??? 🥸

49:00 - That’s an Osprey!

[@redstone31]

forward movement @26:50

[@Lebon19]

glad to see another person that does not like backward going views. It's so much better when we go forward. Give me time to see what's coming up and have a good look as the train passes by. While we go backward, things appear suddenly and then get smaller and smaller quickly. I can't appreciate as much.

[@Lebon19]

1:11:34 to 1:21:51 As soon as the kid got really chatty at the frist time stamp and then somebody saying good morning to them at 1:12:22. I wonder that is about. Since it's kids, is it a class of some sort? A field trip? That's kind of a weird catch on microphone...

[@richardlong3745]

Is the railway company keep some or all of this railway line active for freight train reason or our they going to abandon so or all of this railway line and give back to the government for hikers and other recreational uses for the public?

[@jameshowitt2463]

Is Demographics playing a part in the spate of closures at the moment?

[@Pvemaster2]

Of course, all young people moved to cities, old people who live in these rural places passing away and there's no babies. Japan lost 500K people last year net...

前面のところに居座っての撮影禁止なのにどうやってブレずに撮影したのこれ?

[@AUNZRAILFAN]

コロナ前の撮影当時は、そういったルールは設けられておりませんでした。

[@qjtvaddict]

Just temporarily suspend these lines till people reproduce again.

[@jozefbania]

They work 12 h per day 6 days in a week and live in 10square meter flats where they can reproduce and when? They will dissapear.

[@dtv2562]

Thanks for that beautiful and calm ride! Sad to know that I’m writing it week before that line will closed ;( Anyway, greetings from Minsk, Kurasovschina! (Baranovichi-Polesskie railroad)

掃除の女性にとっては全く興味が無い事なのだと思いました。おろち号が出発するホームに居るのに、見ることもしなかったです。

[@toratora1177]

そんなことを言っては掃除の女性が可哀そうです。正直、私も興味がありません。 それにしても動画の景色は素晴らしいですね。私も今度行ってみたい。
