Product Description ■ The first car of the connection with the HEAT logo!
[Introduction of actual cars]
In the early 1990 s, JR Hokkaido had to cope with the increased competition with other routes, such as the extension of expressways and the popularity of air routes.
In 1992, JR Hokkaido developed the Kiha 281 series, a new-generation limited express diesel car.
The pendulum system based on the JR Shikoku 2000 series and the 355 hp high-power engine installed in each car made it possible to run at a maximum speed of 130km/h while keeping the speed as high as possible even on curved sections.
Three trial cars and 24 mass-produced cars were manufactured. The Super Hokuto started commercial operation in 1994.
This train connected the same section in 2 hours and 59 minutes, 30 minutes faster than the conventional one.
The logo mark "HEAT281" was drawn under the driver's cabin as an accent.
