Product Explanation ■ The old mammoth rotary that spends the rest of my life with 西会津
[Actual car]
Based on the steam-type rotary Snow Remover that two cars were imported from the US in 1923, the train was mass-produced in Japan, and the number was changed to the Ki 300 type (later changed to the Ki 600 type).
It has a boiler similar to a steam locomotive in the car, which rotates the rotary on the head to bounce off the snow on the tracks.
The appearance is similar to a steam locomotive. Although the shape of the boiler was replaced with a box-shaped body, it could not run on its own, but it was propelled by another locomotive from behind.
The model was changed to the Ki 620 type.
The Ki 600 type and Ki 620 type were used in heavy snowfall areas throughout Japan. However, as the DD14 rotary-type diesel locomotive was developed, it was gradually replaced, and the model disappeared in 1975.
The Ki 621 type was used as the second model of the Ki 620 type in 1948, and was used in the Niigata District. However, as the DD14 rotary-type diesel locomotive was developed, it was used in the Niigata District.
After 1968, it became a characteristic figure with a yellow belt showing the maximum speed limit of 65km/h wrapped around not only the boiler part but also the tender.
After the car was scrapped, it was stored in the Nyoho-ji Temple in Nishiaizu-machi, Yama-gun, Banetsu West Line, the nearest to Nozawa station, Fukushima, along with the Ki 100 type.
After the car was scrapped, it was stored with a yellow belt showing the maximum speed limit of 65km/h wrapped around not only the boiler part but also the tender.
A new variation based on the A0322 released in January 2003.
