Naoetsu D51 Rail Park
The rail park opened on April 29th, 2021, at the site of the rail yard in Azuma-cho, Joetsu City. The intention was to focus on Naoetsu as the birthplace of railways in Niigata Prefecture. The biggest highlight is the experience of riding the steam locomotive “Degoichi(D51)”. In addition, you can take a tour of the turntable and a fan-shaped, engine shed that have remained since the time of the former Japanese National Railways. The old JNR 413 series, which is a popular series with railroad fans, is on display in the rolling stock shed, and you can observe the inside of the train. * There is no parking lot.
