Yufuin no Mori         
The Yufuin no Mori {Forest of Yufuin} DMU trainset is unique to JR Kyushu. According to Wikipedia there is only 1 set in service. This 4 car train was put in service in 1989 from reconditioned class KiHa 58 and 65 cars with new bodies. In 2003 this trainset was again refurbished and remains in service today. Seen here at Hakata is the trailing cab car, #4, class KiHa 71-2. This classy and unusual train was more a 'lucky catch' than i originally expected, I'd say!
