- A dual-mode vehicle (DMV) is a vehicle that can operate on conventional road surfaces as well as a railway track or a dedicated track known as a guideway.
The Asatō Line (阿佐東線, Asatō-sen, lit. 'Asa East Line') is a Japanese railway line connecting Kaifu Station, Kaiyō and Kannoura Station, Tōyō. Together with JR Shikoku's Mugi Line, it has the official nickname Awa Muroto Seaside Line (阿波室戸シーサイドライン, Awa Muroto Shīsaido Rain). This is the only railway line operated by Asa Coast Railway Company (阿佐海岸鉄道株式会社, Asa Kaigan Tetsudō kabushiki-gaisha). The company's name is abbreviated to the portmandeau Asatetsu (阿佐鉄). Since the line goes through a relatively sparsely populated area, it is under severe business stress, to the point where closure of the line has been proposed.
The railway company commenced operating road-rail vehicles, known as DMV (dual-mode vehicle) in Japan, on the Asato Line from 25 December 2021. The vehicles, three heavily modified Toyota Coasters, are claimed to be the first in the world, will allow through service to areas without rail track laid. In preparation, the rail line was disconnected from the Mugi Line since summer 2019.

Really appreciate this journey that you made for us! Thanks for sharing!
WOW, This is only possible in Japan, I have never seen a passenger bus driving on the road and rails,what a great country great video thank you for sharing this ;-)
面白い乗り物ですね。いつか乗りに行きたいです。
Очень интересный транспорт. А как он на рельсы становится, интересно было бы посмотреть!
The west side traffic always makes me smile a bit !!! LOL🙂🙂
This looks interesting, but judging from the noise and vibration the rail wheels have no suspension - that can't be pleasant when rolling on jointed track!
DMV運行開始してから2年になりましたね。
いつか乗ってみたいです。
It changes really fast. What does it look like from outside?
👍👍👍👍
Gear shifting rail car!
at 6:34, I wonder if that curved bridge-like structure was once planned to be a newer end terminal for the railway? Looks a bit like a small private railway elevated station to me.
oh, never mind me, that's what I get for commenting before the end of a video. The railway would need to u-turn for that!
