This video is where the SL is rotating on the turntable and taken at Kinugawa Onsen Station.

The steam-locomotive-powered train SL Taiju travels to the Nikko and Kinugawa areas, both of which are major tourist destinations in Japan.

This attractive train passes through Kinugawa, one of the nation’s top hot springs resort areas, and near the UNESCO World Heritage Site–designated Nikko area.
The name SL Taiju, with SL meaning “steam locomotive” and “Taiju” meaning “great tree,” was chosen in honor of the celebrated shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu whose mausoleum is located in Nikko Toshogu Shrine, one of the shrines and temples of comprising the World Heritage Site.

Ieyasu was also referred to by the name Taiju.

Steam locomotives were one of the major driving forces during Japan’s modernization, and today it is rare to see or ride trains driven by these machines. They spew steam like some sort of living creature as they chug powerfully forward.

Experience this awesome power for yourself as you enjoy an unforgettable trip.
