JR DE101565MSJ |
Description: |
On a 2009 trip to Japan, I caught this DE10 #1565 switching at Minami Senju. The DE 10 class are 65 ton diesel-hydraulic switchers with an unusual wheel arraingement of 'A-A-A B'. The DE 10 has 1,350 hp, this example was built approximately 1969 by Nippon -Sharyo.. They are ubiqutous across Japan but that may be an end of an era now, as a new type of Hybrid diesel is coming into service. |

HDR 300#4MSJs2 |
Description: |
No. 4 pushing a string of JRF containers back to be unloaded, Minami Senju. Once in place, the flats will be quicky divested of thier containers with big forklifts. The HDR 300 operates very quietly and runs about most of the time in battery-electric mode. During my 45 minutes watch, I noticed its engine only running once. In preliminary tests done by JR the HD300 showed significant savings in fuel, noise and emissions over the DE series. -Seems like the Brakeman needs a place to sit a few...! |

HDR 300#4, MSJ |
Description: |
The future of JR switcher power is represented here. This is a Toshiba HDR300 diesel genset switcher very early on in the series; the number 4. Aside from being boxy they are very similar to the DE 10 family they will replace. They have B B trucks and a 671 hp. engine powering its Lithium Ion batterys when charge gets low. Here the No. 4 works Minami Senju. |

Straight-on view of the 3121. Judging by the double sheath cab roof, downward pointing horns and sealed headlights, [NOT Gyralights, I checked 'em!] I would have to say the series is optimised for operations through heavy downpours..and the crews who manned them, probably all suffering from premature hearing loss??? |

Hin Lap Yard |
Description: |
Overview of the sorting yard for cement cars at Hin Lap, 144.29km. [90.1 mi.] from Bangkok. The little station here has long been closed to passenger service and serves the SRT crews who work the cement trains here. We accessed the area from Pha Sadet on local roads, which in the last kilometer before Hin Lap shared a stretch of right of way with the quarry lead {To a railfan's thought, "This is getting good!" comes to mind..}". Manned guard shacks were at each end of the shared ROW, as it is we seem to have startled the guard on our end who seemed to not expect any traffic -he anxiously waved us through and within seconds of clearing the shared ROW and second guard a cut of cement hoppers came rolling past us! We were then shortly through the mountain Gap which forms Hin Lap's false summit to find this view here.. |
