The prestigious limited express train "Hato" that ran on the Tokaido Main Line appeared the following year after the revival of the limited express "Heiwa" (later "Tsubame") in 1949. Just as "Tsubame", which departs from Tokyo and Osaka at 9 o'clock, is followed, "Hato" has a timetable that departs from both stations at 12:30. EF58 was the driving force in the electrified section, and C62 was the driving force in the non-electrified section. The Mite 58 used in the "Hato" observation car was characterized by a modern appearance with a dome and no body rivets.
It is a formation that incorporates the observation car Mite 58 2, and we recommend the C62 Tokai type and F58 early type large window tea as the towing machine.
