☆★☆This is what it was actually like!☆★☆
* The curtain of the seat is a little transparent and sexy.
* The design of the train is stunning in every detail.
* I was doing my business in the bathroom and forgot to close the lock, so a strange guy opened the door.
* Since the car body is old, the running noise and air conditioning noise are not quiet.
* Currently, only package tours are sold, and one-way tickets cannot be purchased.
* Online reservations can be made one month prior to the travel date.
* When you get on the train, I recommend getting a map with the times when you can see the ocean!
