Kushiro Wetland Norokko Train


The Kushiro Wetland Norokko-go was a sightseeing train that operated on the Senmo Main Line between Kushiro and Toro or Kawayu-Onsen. Its main appeal lay in the leisurely pace at which it traveled through the beautiful Kushiro Wetland, hauled by a DE10 diesel locomotive; however, due to the aging of the train, the service was unfortunately discontinued on October 10, 2026. Please take a look at the magnificent sight of the Norokko-go, captured in a photograph in August,2025.
