Sakura and Steam locomotive

Sat, March 11, 2017, by Muza-chan

A steam locomotive passing next to blossoming sakura cherry trees… The combination between the delicate flowers and the raw power of the old time locomotive makes for a very enjoyable landscape for any railway enthusiast, and not only for them.

There are a few places in Japan where you can still see functional steam locomotives. The easiest to access is the small steam railway of the Kyoto Railway Museum, which in this season recreates the feeling of the old time springs…
