00:36Yeah.
00:42CAU is here on a bullet trip!
00:47What are you most looking forward to?
00:49Convenience store.
00:52It's the greatest thing.
00:53We don't have the same convenience store culture.
00:57Do you have a favorite convenience store product?
01:00Egg sandwich.
01:04Egg sandwich is popular.
01:06Melon bread and egg sandwich.
01:08And American dog.
01:11You can call us the crazy egg ladies.
01:13Crazy egg ladies.
01:15Do you eat a lot?
01:16I love eggs.
01:17I like 7-Eleven.
01:20I like 7-Eleven.
01:217-Eleven.
01:22It's different from other convenience stores.
01:24It's fluffy.
01:25Delicious.
01:26It's like refreshing.
01:27Like energizing.
01:28Like power up.
01:31Egg sandwich is delicious.
01:33Lawson's egg sandwich.
01:36Is it possible eggs to taste like this?
01:40Better than Canada.
01:447-Eleven's egg sandwich.
01:46It looks delicious just by looking at it.
01:49Thank you for your time.
01:50Bye.
01:52Which one should I eat?
02:00There are so many.
02:02I ate both of them.
02:04That's great.
02:05You eat them every day.
02:08Hello, Japanese TV.
02:10I'd like to interview you.
02:13What do you do?
02:15Where are you from?
02:16I'm from France.
02:18France.
02:19What do you do?
02:21Because I'm here to visit my relatives.
02:24Are you Yu's wife?
02:26Yes, I'm his wife.
02:28Father and mother.
02:31She's our daughter.
02:32I see.
02:34It's been 4 months.
02:354 months.
02:36Little Yu came to see his grandparents.
02:42Is there anything you're interested in in Japan?
02:45Well...
02:46I want to see...
02:51It's a little embarrassing.
02:54It's a little embarrassing.
02:55It's cute.
02:56Oh, Gaston.
02:58You want to go to Gaston?
03:00Gaston is amazing.
03:05What do you like to eat?
03:07Pancakes.
03:08You like pancakes.
03:10Pancakes.
03:11Do you like pancakes?
03:12Yes.
03:13Gaston's pancakes are delicious.
03:15It looks simple and delicious.
03:19Do you always eat pancakes at Gaston's when you come to Japan?
03:23Yes.
03:24I see.
03:26It's delicious.
03:27It's delicious.
03:28Breakfast is good.
03:30Do you like pancakes?
03:32I like it.
03:34In France, we don't really eat pancakes.
03:37I see.
03:38That's why when I come here, I think it's very good.
03:43Please enjoy the pancakes.
03:45Yes.
03:47Bye-bye.
03:50Bye-bye, Kim.
03:55Hi, excuse me.
03:56We are a Japanese TV program.
03:58I come from Pennsylvania in the United States.
04:01What are you doing in Japan?
04:03My main reason for being here...
04:05I'm a student of Rikiyo University, Nikabukuro.
04:09I don't speak Japanese very well.
04:12He's an international student.
04:15Where are you going by bus?
04:17I want to get a ticket to take me to Niigata on the 12th of November.
04:21I'm planning on taking a little train excursion behind an SL.
04:25SL BANETSUGO.
04:28A steam locomotive is a very important reason why I do love being in Japan.
04:34He likes it.
04:36SL HITOYOSHI.
04:38Kumamoto Station.
04:39It's undoubtedly good.
04:43And plenty in Japan including SL Peleo Express on the Chichibu Railway.
04:50Japan...
04:52They have such a frequent quantity.
04:56Almost unlike anywhere else.
04:58They have a lot of SLs.
05:01That's nice.
05:02SLs were born in the UK.
05:05This is the first one?
05:09SLs are amazing.
05:11It's like a piece of iron.
05:13In the Meiji Era, SLs went to Japan.
05:18SLs carried everyone's dreams and hopes.
05:20They continued to travel around the country.
05:25But they were pushed back and retired.
05:27This is the last one.
05:28It's running normally.
05:32SLs for sightseeing.
05:34They're back!
05:36I wonder how many SLs there are in Japan.
05:38I wonder how many there are.
05:40I don't like this.
05:41There are 10 and 20.
05:42But there are 9.
05:44There are 9.
05:47This is amazing.
05:509 is running properly.
05:51You can ride all of this.
05:53You can.
05:54We're going to ride the SL Banetsu.
05:58It's the Aizu Wakamatsu.
06:00What's so great about SLs?
06:14It's exciting.
06:16Can I ride with you?
06:24Can I?
06:25Yes.
06:26Thank you very much.
06:27Let's go!
06:31They head to Niigata by night bus.
06:36It takes 7 and a half hours to dream about SLs.
06:40It takes this long by bus.
06:45It's like a one-night stay.
06:54I like this.
06:58They're going straight to SL.
07:00It's the Aizu Wakamatsu.
07:01I wonder if our bus can go there.
07:04It's running.
07:05It's running.
07:06The Banetsu story.
07:13I didn't know there was a bus like this.
07:15That's not for us.
07:17Isn't it different?
07:19How is it?
07:25It's fast.
07:26It's cool.
07:29I want to go fast.
07:34It's powerful.
07:36It's cool.
07:38It's really cool.
07:42The shape is really cool.
07:46It's cool.
07:49He transformed into Toritetsu Yu.
07:57It's cool.
07:58I like it more and more as I get older.
08:03I want to ride this, too.
08:06What is it?
08:08It's an amazing seat.
08:10Can I ride that?
08:12You can ride it.
08:14Can I ride it?
08:19I can ride it.
08:20I can ride it.
08:28I want to take a picture.
08:29It's a rare machine room.
08:32It's amazing.
08:33It's amazing that it's being maintained so that it can still move.
08:37The driver's seat is also taken.
08:42It's a kind of occupation.
08:45Thank you very much.
08:48It's a special service.
08:52How does it look?
08:53It's cool.
08:56Good morning, everyone.
08:58Good morning.
09:05It's about time we got on board right now.
09:07We're going to be leaving in a few minutes.
09:10Before that...
09:14He's bringing it with him.
09:18What is that?
09:29It looks fun.
09:31Let's have a good trip.
09:33Let's have a good trip, shall we?
09:36See you.
09:38It's cool.
09:39He's wearing a hat.
09:40He's in a good mood.
09:45This iron mass is amazing.
09:48It's his first time on board.
09:50The sound is amazing, too.
09:51The sound is good.
09:53It's good.
09:54It's cool.
09:56It's cool.
09:59The sound of the locomotive.
10:01The smell, too.
10:04Did you hear that?
10:07It was a whistle.
10:09It was a whistle.
10:10It's good.
10:12He's excited.
10:14It moved.
10:16It's a reflection.
10:19It's a nice table.
10:22He's going to Wakamatsu.
10:25His voice is good.
10:27It's like a narration.
10:28I understand.
10:30Goodbye, everyone.
10:35Goodbye, Niigata Station.
10:43From Niigata to Aizu Wakamatsu.
10:46The longest SL train in Japan.
10:48It's amazing.
10:50It's like an era.
10:52It's cool.
10:54It's amazing.
10:56It's a one-way street.
10:59It's cool.
11:02It depends on the season.
11:04The scenery is different.
11:10That's right.
11:11I miss that door.
11:13This is good.
11:16This is it.
11:18It opens.
11:21It's good.
11:31This is it.
11:33It's a curve.
11:37This is good.
11:39It's good.
11:44It's like we're traveling together.
11:47It's good.
11:51It's been a long time.
11:53It's been a long time.
11:55It's been a long time.
11:56I like it.
12:00We're going to stop.
12:02Nitsuwaki.
12:04Nitsuwaki.
12:10It's good.
12:12Good morning.
12:14Good morning.
12:16The weather is good today.
12:18It's good.
12:20It's an Aizu train.
12:23Where are you from?
12:25Where are you from?
12:27I'm American.
12:31I'm Japanese.
12:33I see.
12:35What's your name?
12:39My name is Masaji Sonoda.
12:41Masaji Sonoda.
12:44I'm a girl.
12:48Nice to meet you.
13:00It's good.
13:04Midland Railway, England.
13:06England.
13:08That's right.
13:10I've been to Los Angeles.
13:15If you wear my helmet, you'll get bald.
13:20I'm not afraid to catch that sort of thing.
13:25The journey of SL is a long one.
13:28It's good.
13:29I'm looking forward to meeting people like this.
13:33There's a lot of people.
13:35Really?
13:37Off we go again.
13:39People are walking around like this.
13:41That's right.
13:42There's something inside.
13:45What is this place?
13:47We're at the observatory.
13:49It's renovated.
13:51It's an observatory.
13:53It's cool.
13:56It's good.
13:58It's good.
14:00It's a big window.
14:02It's impressive.
14:05It's a good season.
14:13That's right.
14:15This is good.
14:17I can feel that I'm riding it.
14:28It's engraved on SL.
14:30That's amazing.
14:35We're getting off.
14:37There's a long station.
14:40It's like an express train.
14:42That's right.
14:45Look at this.
14:47They have to shift a couple of tons.
14:49It's easier for the fireman to access the shoveling plate.
14:55The mechanism would have to be the driving wheels.
14:58As well as what's known as the motion.
15:00These mechanical linkages you see on the sides.
15:04It's what gives us an idea of how they work.
15:07Even if we know nothing about them to begin with.
15:11That man over there.
15:13I can't stop SL love.
15:15It's amazing.
15:21It's true.
15:33Thomas?
15:35Ever since I read Thomas the Tank Engine,
15:37I've been obsessed with SL.
15:39That's why you like it so much.
15:45Steam locomotives,
15:47they are the closest thing to a living being
15:50man has ever made, we believe.
15:52An elephant.
15:54They roar like a lion when they whistle.
15:56And race along like the wind
15:58whenever they're running.
16:00Like a horse scalloping.
16:03He has a deep love for SL.
16:10There's a lot of people riding this.
16:16Nice.
16:18There's a shop.
16:20Are you buying something?
16:22Yes, please.
16:24A bento?
16:26A station bento.
16:28That's a nice bento.
16:32What's that?
16:34It's a Totto bento.
16:36That's cool.
16:39Gorgeous Chirashi Sushi
16:41and Tenkomori, a specialty of Niigata.
16:44That's nice.
16:46A rare bento.
16:48Let's eat.
16:58He's so nice.
17:00He's giving us tea.
17:02That's nice.
17:04He's enjoying it.
17:06It's delicious.
17:08I look out the window right now.
17:10I think this is a beautiful view.
17:22What's that?
17:24Signature?
17:26My address.
17:28Your address?
17:30My address.
17:32I see.
17:34There are delicious fish.
17:38I would love that.
17:40I'll certainly try.
17:43They had a wonderful encounter.
17:47For me?
17:53It's time to say goodbye.
17:55Goodbye.
17:58Did you like it?
17:59It was good.
18:01Thank you for getting on the train.
18:03It's time to say goodbye.
18:08He's saying goodbye to us.
18:23He's answering us.
18:25He looks like a living creature.
18:31There are a lot of fish here.
18:33What are you going to do?
18:35He's enjoying it.
18:39He's going sightseeing.
18:45Hurry up.
18:47Do you have a goal?
18:49What's that?
18:53It's a station.
18:59What's that?
19:01Again?
19:03What's going on?
19:07I see.
19:09He's enjoying SL.
19:11He's enjoying U-turn in the same SL.
19:16That's amazing.
19:18I see.
19:21Goodbye, Aizu Wakamatsu.
19:24Isn't that amazing?
19:26He's looking back.
19:32Why?
19:46He's going back to the hospital.
19:49He looks like an adult.
19:51He's 21 years old.
19:53That's amazing.
19:55He's having a dream.
20:05He's having a dream.
20:07It's not a dream when he's alive.
20:10He's having a dream when he's dead.
20:13That's amazing.
20:15It's a nice sunset.
20:23What's that?
20:26He's going to continue his journey.
20:28He's going anywhere.
20:31What does SL stand for?
20:36SL stands for Line.
20:39It's S.
20:41SL stands for Splash.
20:43Splash Line.
20:45Steam Line.
20:47Steam Line.
20:49The answer is...
20:51Steam Locomotive.
20:54Steam is correct.
20:56But Locomotive is incorrect.
20:58Locomotive is cheating.
