[Actual vehicle guide]
――The Kiha 40 series is a general-purpose diesel car that appeared in 1977 as a successor to the Kiha 10 series.
――The Kiha 40-100 type for extremely cold regions became the Kiha 40-700 type by one-man remodeling, but along with repairing each part, the engine and transmission were updated, and the roof water tank was relocated inside the car, and it became the original car number. It became the 1700s with 1000 plus.
--In December 2019, a campaign [Northern Reprint 40 Request] was held in conjunction with the release of the [Northern 40th Anniversary Admission Ticket] commemorating the Kiha 40 series, which has been active in Hokkaido for 40 years.
――Of the 6 types of paint color candidates, the Soya Line Express has a gray color scheme and red and green bands that are similar to the Kiha 400 series, which was remodeled from the Kiha 40 series that was once used by the Soya Line Express. The color was chosen and applied to Kiha 40-1747.
――The product is a model that reproduces Kiha 40-1747, which is the color of the Soya Line express train, and Kiha 40-729, which is the color of JR Hokkaido.
