This video compiles winter scenery from the Oito Line between Itoigawa and Minami-Otari. It’s a compilation of previously uploaded winter videos of the Oito Line, but without background music. Previously unreleased footage (winter scenery at Himekawa Station, Kubiki-Ono Station, and Kita-Otari Station) has been added.
This line offers beautiful scenery throughout the seasons, but the snow-covered landscapes are particularly special. It truly represents the quintessential Japanese landscape. I believe it’s worth taking the train even if your sole purpose is to admire the scenery along the line. The sound of the tracks echoing through the mountains, along with the view of the train, is one of those scenes I want to preserve forever.
*Except for the beginning, there is no background music. The sound of the wind and other ambient noises are included, so there are places where the sound suddenly becomes louder. Please be careful with the volume. Minor background noises are also included.
*In scenes where trains are arriving or departing, there are unnecessarily long shots of the train disappearing from view. (laughs)
