Creator’s Note

This model was started a year ago, and with the Rolling Line Discord’s "Japanese Layout Contest" taking place, it would never be more fitting to finish a classic Japanese Steam Locomotive. Who knows, maybe this is the start of more Japanese trains?

Thank you, please enjoy!

History

The Japanese National Railways C57 steam locomotive is a passenger tender steam locomotive (SL) of the Japanese National Railways (JNR) produced in 1937 to 1947. As of 2022, the C57 Class is still being used in active service on tourist railroads and is sometimes introduced in the media with the nickname "Kifujin", and within local railfan communities, "Shigo Nana". Initially designed as an improvement to the JNR C55 class, with Hideo Shima’s help, it was decided to be made an entirely new class, as more and more improvements were made in it’s design. In total, there were 201 locomotives made, and 36 preserved.
