The Nishikigawa Railway Tokotoko Train is a sightseeing trolley train with the image of a ``ladybug'' that operates on part of the site of the roadbed of a railway line that was once planned and constructed. You can enjoy the great nature of the Usagawa River, which is known for its clear streams, from the window of the approximately 6-kilometer train that connects Nishikicho Station to Sozukyo Onsen Station. Immediately after leaving Nishikicho Station, the Hirose Tunnel has been renovated and has a total length of 1,796 meters.The Kirara Dream Tunnel is made of glowing stones and has a fantastical mural depicting the galaxy. In spring, you can leisurely drive through a tunnel of cherry blossoms.
