I have been watching Japan Rail for over two years but I have never seen such greenery surrounding the track. I was fasinated by the spectacular green and lush meadows that the line passes through. It is just thrilling to see all the trees and rice fields along the track. I really enjoyed the rise on this line. Thank you for a wonderful video.
Your Nagaragawa Line videos were how I became interested in Japanese train videos and they have brought me great enjoyment for years. Thank you for giving us an update on this line and I am very sad that local lines across Japan are being shut down.
@Ben Chuft Are they being replaced with some sort of express line? I'm just wondering how that'll affect residents if local lines are being shut down with nothing to replace them.
@@tofulosophy Most likely it will be replaced with a bus service as it's cheaper than a railroad and sometimes can be more convenient. Railroads are great for long-distance travel but low passenger count makes it very uneconomical. If the company or the prefecture deems the line unprofitable even if they switched to buses, then people will have to seek other transportation methods such as cars or taxis.
@@khamronsingame Railroads are also great if you want to get to where you're going on time, and not have to wait for a bus that's been held up in traffic (and it will be), and then sit in said traffic in said bus. It would be interesting how switching to inefficient bus travel will affect Japanese punctuality standards indeed.
This is a beautiful train journey through the lovely countryside and mountains. Thank you for showing me this. I love Japan!! I live in South West England. Xx
Спасибо большое за видео! Красиво, интересно... Очень доволен, что вижу природу страны и очень интересная дорога... Привет из России, привет из Москвы!
Very scenic ride and fascinating to see how the rail line snakes through backyards so close to peoples houses. Sad to see lack of maintenance on rail stations.
11:18 The track switch is in the wrong position to transition to the other track here. Did it switch just in time off camera? Edit: I just learned that some track switches are designed to be moved by the wheel flanges as is the case here. This concept did cross my mind but I thought "Nah, can't be" until I researched it. Moving the switch with the wheels would not work from the other direction, though.
The turnout (the correct name for the entire assembly of rails) incorporates a spring switch (the 'switch' is the two rails that can actually 'switch' a train from one track to another.) 'Spring Switches' are identified by special 'targets'/signs, lights/lamps or all of these, and would be identified as such in instructions to the train 'driver'/engineer. In this instance, the target/sign with the 'crossed-through' "S" is one indication, the lamp atop the 'Switch Stand' is another. Most Spring Switch Stands incorporate some form of hydraulic device that slows the switch rails returning to the 'pre-set' position after a train has 'run through' the switch. This reduces wear on both the rails and train wheels, especially if the train is long.
This is just completely charming It's like a Miyazaki movie. Best rail journey every. Wot the heck glitch in the matrix at 45:11 tho. Those people appear like ghosts.
Beautiful ride! But what was at 11:17?! The railroad switch was not used and the track junction is not pointing for the merger of the train to the single track!! It is still point towards the right rail where the red train was! Is it supposed to be like this? Is it something new that it if a train passes it just goes automatically to the correct position?
I think it is self-return junction. It is sometimes used on local railway or tram lines for easier traffic control. ruclips.net/video/HIcRuRzkDag/видео.html
It's a spring switch. That sign with an S with a line going through signifies it. It means that the switch is stuck in one position (from this video's perspective, it's going to the right-hand side platform). When the train we're viewing crosses over, the wheels push against a spring and it is able to pass through before springing back into position.
I noticed a lot of people standing in the river and fishing (under the bridge crossing the river after Aioi station). What would they be catching, some sort of local trout or salmon?
Sadly, a common reason behind using a commercial operating company to operate a marginal railway is so that, at some point in time, it can be closed without the greatest part of the blame for its closure falling on the politicians. If the line is closed, they can say that it was not a commercially viable prospect whereas if it is operated by the government, people will say it has been badly run and that it should be granted a subsidy to keep running.

I eagerly waited and was not disappointed!

This really calmed me down! Thank you! Really appreciate your channel!
I just love watching and riding trains when I visit Japan every few years. 有難うございます。
Akaike had crows hanging around the station, so graceful as they left . Even the Crows are well behaved in Japan 🙏❣️

Beautiful ride! 😍👍💖
Love the name and paint job. Pure classic. Wish there were more railways like these guys.
These kinds of videos help me to relax and decrease the level of anxiety and depression.
Спасибо большое за видео! Красиво, интересно... Очень доволен, что вижу природу страны и очень интересная дорога...

а колея то какая? не нашол я в описаниях.

Welcome to the Nagaragawa River! Thank you!
Best rail system in the world. Nothing comes even close. Would love to ride on it someday.
Thanks for the upload!
What a ride, really love it.
Not many videos out there makes me want to sit and watch for this long and still enjoy every moments.
Thank you.
Superb scenary and ride. Very interesting to see the railway and the Nagara river playing games, repeatedly crossing each other.
Vielen dank für die Mitfahrt
I know Japan is no dreamland but watching these beautiful and peaceful rides I can't help thinking it actually is.
FANTASTIC RIDE ! Never seen before this side after Mino- OOta ! Beautiful , beautiful ! Super thanks ! I loved it ! 💗💗💗
A truly wonderful journey & a very colourful train thank you.🦘🐨🍶🚆🛤😀😇🤠 cheers bob.
I really like the exceptional meeting of the river, the track and the motorway-bridge at 42:50 😯
Beautiful scenery Japan is a beautiful country I hope one day I can visit there from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
it is rare to encounter a rail line using diesel in Japan, most of their trains are electrified

God take care of me all my loved ones I love you with all my heart. Thank God for my brothers and sisters that drive trains.
Ahh ... Japan ... to sojourn, ah ... to live vicariously, maybe to stay for the long while.
見ている途中で知ってる地名がでて 金沢名古屋間をよく車で 走ってるので最後まで楽しく見ました 北濃駅も休憩で寄りました ありがとう
There was a sad incident at the crossing, located at time = 1:44:25 on 04 Jan 2022.
Great ride! 🚃
Love this islands green colour 😊
I am surprised how bumpy the ride is. Same as local train in central-east Europe.
Asli ini keren, mungkin hampir sama ya di indonesia masih banyak persawahan di sana

Viedeo nice good camera secret
Seki - Tomioka to bardzo ładna stacja kolejowa ❤
Очень красивый маршрут.
越美南線も過疎になってしまったな。
まあ、車に負けたんだろう。国道156と高速道路のダブルパンチ、岐阜市や各務原市ではなく美濃加茂市がスタートという不便さ。この２点だろうな。
繋いでいる市町は悪くなかったと思う。そこそこの町である関市と、観光地や名産品盛りだくさんの郡上市を経由しているからね。
Прикольно, очень много красивых видов!!!
なぜ数多くのローカル線展望動画があるのに長良川鉄道の動画だけ外国人のコメが多いんだw
Not too sure why but I come here just for the train cab view because I am a train enthusiast
Спасибо, интересно!
I have a question, is this railway operated by a company or the government? It seems like the number of passengers isn't enough to make a profit.
It said in the introduction that the line is operated by a private company, and is their only railway line.
@ 45:11 ghosts?
テケテケ
chuggington??
I like the part with train
美濃大田は、乗り換えか通過駅で、この列車は乗車した事ないんじゃよ。駅間が短いのを見ると、元々地域密着型の鉄道らしいのお。
04:45 brazil mentioned
11:17 someone can explain??
Yes, sprung points.
Sadly, a common reason behind using a commercial operating company to operate a marginal railway is so that, at some point in time, it can be closed without the greatest part of the blame for its closure falling on the politicians.
