■ What is Cassiopeia?
Cassiopeia is a special express train operated by East Japan Railway Company, Iwate Galaxy Railway, Aoimori Railway, and Hokkaido Railway between Ueno Station and Sapporo Station.
Cassiopeia began operation on July 16, 1999 (departing from Ueno) and July 17 (departing from Sapporo). All the cabins are single A sleepers for 2 people, and despite the fact that the special sleeper fare for this train is more expensive than other sleeper limited express trains, it was a very popular train.
The name of the train comes from the constellation Cassiopeia. It is said that the reason for this is that it is a constellation that evokes the image of a night train, and that it is a constellation that shines in the northern sky all night long, paired with the North Star and the Big Dipper.
With the opening of the Hokkaido Shinkansen, about 82 km including the Seikan Tunnel became a shared running section for Shinkansen and conventional lines, and the overhead line voltage was raised from 20,000 V AC for conventional lines to 25,000 V AC for Shinkansen. The sleeper limited express "Cassiopeia" ceased operation on March 19 (departing from Ueno) and March 20 (departing from Sapporo), 2016, and was officially abolished on March 26, 2016, the day the Shinkansen opened.
The regular service of Cassiopeia has ended, but after that, "Cassiopeia Cruise" and "Cassiopeia Travel" are operated as group tour trains.

■カシオペアとは
カシオペアはかつて東日本旅客鉄道・IGRいわて銀河鉄道・青い森鉄道・北海道旅客鉄道が上野駅 - 札幌駅間で運行していた臨時特別急行列車です。
カシオペアは1999年7月16日(上野発)・17日(札幌発)から運行開始。全客室が2名用A寝台個室であり、他の寝台特急列車よりも高額な本列車専用の寝台料金が必要となるにもかかわらず、人気の高い列車でした。
列車名は星座のカシオペア座に由来。理由としては夜行列車をイメージさせ、「北極星を中心に『北斗七星』と対となり一晩中北の空に輝く星座」であるためとされています。
北海道新幹線の開業によって、青函トンネルを含む約82 kmが新幹線と在来線の共用走行区間となり、架線電圧が在来線用の交流20,000 Vから新幹線用の交流25,000 Vへと昇圧。寝台特急「カシオペア」は2016年3月19日(上野発)・20日(札幌発)を最後に運行を終了、新幹線開業日である同年3月26日付で正式に廃止されました。
カシオペアの定期運行は終了しましたが、その後、団体ツアー専用列車として「カシオペアクルーズ」および「カシオペア紀行」が運行されています。
