To commemorate Japan's professional baseball team, the Hanshin Tigers, becoming the best in Japan in 2023, the Mukogawa Line vehicles ``TORACO'' and ``Truckee'' were operated as regular trains on the main line. We are filming scenes where the train departs and arrives at nine stations from Osaka Umeda Station to Expressway Kobe Station.
The ``TORACO'' and ``Truckee'' trains for the Mukogawa Line were connected, and a 4-car train was operated as a regular main line (Osaka Umeda - Kobe Expressway). It also connects to the underground line of the Kobe Rapid Line.
The stations photographed are Amagasaki, Koshien 1, Nishinomiya, Kosoku Kobe, Uozaki, Koshien 2, Osaka Umeda, Amagasaki 2, Koshien 3, Ashiya, Mikage, and Kobe Sannomiya. I photographed Amagasaki twice and Koshien three times.
We also filmed the TORACO and Truckee trains taking shelter from express trains at the station from inside the overtaking trains. (Nishinomiya Station, Mikage Station)
At Koshien Station (before the second stop), there is also a ``Japan's Specially Wrapped Train'' decorated with life-size photos of the Tigers manager and players.
The second half of the video includes scenes of other trains arriving, departing, and passing at each station.
Each car and lead car of the Hanshin Electric Railway has a sub-marker commemorating the number one in Japan.
Vehicles of Sanyo train and Kintetsu train are also shown.
