    SL Hitoyoshi, one of JR Kyushu's popular sightseeing trains, is now available as a sound card.
    SL Hitoyoshi is a temporary rapid train operated between Kumamoto and Hitoyoshi with steam locomotive No. 58654 Type 8620 and special passenger car No. 50 Series 700s. It is operated by a steam locomotive Type 8620 Type 58654 and Series 50-700s.
    Both locomotives and coaches are characterised by their black bodies with gorgeous decorations.
    Due to the partial closure of the Hisatsu Line, it has been in operation between Kumamoto and Tosu on the Kagoshima Main Line since May 2021, and the coaches are used on special trains in combination with DE10s.

    By adding sound to SL Hitoyoshi, you can enjoy the charm of the real SL Hitoyoshi and the realistic atmosphere of the journey.

    This product is programmed with a sound tuning type sound card with a tuning setting saving function.
    The ON/OFF setting of the controller priority mode is saved, so even those who start driving with the sound box from now on and those who are not good at the sound tuning mode can enjoy it easily.
