A real mountain goat designed layout! Right from the start,2or 3% percent grades,but beautifully engineered and well laid out curvature and tunnels! Thank you 😇 😊!

The gradient just past Hakone-Yumoto Station is 80‰. Excluding cable cars and Abt railways, this is the steepest slope in Japan.

As mentioned, that's quite a bit of engineering involved in building that track, right away and overhead catenary. It's a very scenic route through the mountains. Thanks for the ride and pointing out the dual gauge and Shinkansen going by.

It took seven years to build the 15km stretch from Hakone-Yumoto Station to Gora Station. It is said that the RhB Bernina Line was used as a reference for the construction, but the construction technology was still immature, and it took two years to build one iron bridge beyond Touosawa Station.

Thanks for the ride. Love your work always, but now more than ever without the tunnels blacked out.🛤

This was thanks to the vehicle's front window being a pleasing shape with no significant reflections.

Thank You for this gift. Next will be ? I'm not sure that was near Kowakidami crossing with (1) when returned from Lake Ashi sigthseeing. Twenty six year old - memory recording. :)

Japan's roads are complicated. The next video shows the Gotemba Line, which runs along the foothills of Mount Fuji.

TOZAN means mountain climbing. Although the scenery is not as steep as RhB (Japanese mountains have many trees), this line is one of Japan's leading mountain railways.
The train does not change gauge like the Talgo. The train with the camera on it is running on the narrower (1067mm) of the three rails. The 1435mm track is for small trains that run beyond Hakone-Yumoto, and there is a garage for small trains at Iriuda Station. You can see the garage on the right before arriving at Iriuda Station.
