秩父鉄道C58 363　影森駅西方　＜Chichibu Railway SL C58＞ 

急行用電車に準じた12系客車なので、編成端のスハフ12には自車を含めて6両に冷房用等の給電が可能なディーゼル発電機を搭載しています お父様の機関車、よくわかってらっしゃる素晴らしい選択ですね😊

Thank you for watching the video. The exhaust pipe at the rear of the passenger car. The exhaust coming out of it is the diesel generator. In modern passenger cars in Japan, one out of every five cars is equipped with a generator under the floor, which generates electricity for air conditioning and lighting. You hear a "whoosh" sound when the train is passing, right? That's the sound of the generator. It's pretty loud, and we can hear it inside the car, but many Japanese people don't mind it. I don't like it, so I ride in a car that doesn't have a generator. It's true that it can generate more power than a generator that rotates the wheels, so the air conditioner works too. The Japanese model on the ceiling. Is it made of plastic? If it's plastic, it's probably 1/50 scale, and it's probably a display model made by a manufacturer called "Otaki". If it's a locomotive with a spoked wheel tender, it might be a C55. It was active on Japanese main lines around 1930. The E10 is a tank-type locomotive, so it doesn't have a tender. The E10 is specially designed for hill trains, and was built by a Japanese person, based on locomotives imported to Japan by Lokomotiv-und Maschinenfabrik J.A.Maffei. Later, the hill train tank locomotives were replaced by modern tender locomotives such as the D51, but they were unpopular. This was because the length of the tender spoiled the length of the sidings at small stations in the mountains.

@@user-od9gr9cz4q ご説明ありがとうございます、14ikesanさんも同じことを教えてくださいました！ 残念ながら亡くなってしまった父の美しいプラモデルは本当に素晴らしく、正確には覚えていないのですが、1970年代後半か1980年代前半に購入されたはずです... どういうわけかあなたの美しい国はいつも私たちにインスピレーションを与え、寄り添ってくれます😊

@@14ikesan12 I replied to another comment early this morning, but then had to go to the early shift and now have a short break to thank you for your detailed answer! Smoke at the end of the train: I had suspected something similar, but wasn't sure if it was true. In German steam trains, steam often came out of the end of the train during the heating season if the pipes were leaky! But it was white and not dark like in this Japanese carriage 😊 Japanese model locomotives: yes, they are plastic models, but everything is very detailed! It could very well be that it is this manufacturer as you mentioned and this scale, the original packaging was disposed of after assembly and there is no manufacturer on the models. In any case, there was also a plastic track with a ballast bed and this plastic display case: protected like this, the models still look as new after more than 40 years as they did immediately after assembly 🤗 Best wishes 🖖

@@wandajackson3410 Thank you for your polite reply. Please reply at a time that is convenient for you. That's the advantage of social media. The smoke coming out of the passenger cars in the video is black, right? It's smoke from burning oil. It's not very appealing, is it? Several manufacturers have made plastic models of Japanese railway vehicles in 1/50, but they didn't last very long. In the end, the reason for this is probably that the manufacturers did not have planners who had a strong passion for railways. Personally, I would like Tamiya to make display models of railways in 1/43 or 1/87, but Tamiya shows no interest in railways. They seem to prefer 88mm Flak.
