Scheduled to be shipped sequentially after 1/22

``RM Re-Library'' reprints two to three volumes of past masterpieces from ` `RM LIBRARY '', which has a long history of over 280 issues. The 21st volume in the series is a reprint of "Ueda Maruko Electric Railway" (written by Michiichi Miyata and Hisashi Morokawa) from RM Library volumes 73 and 74 .

Ueda Maruko Electric Railway is the name of the company that was created when Maruko Railway and Ueda Electric Railway (formerly Ueda Onsen Electric Railway) merged during the war. After the merger, the former Maruko Railway line became the company's Maruko Line, connecting Shinetsu Main Line Oya to Maruko Town. The first half of this book covers the trains and facilities of the line, which was abolished in 1969 .

The second half of this book will focus on the lines of the former Ueda Electric Railway, namely the Bessho Line, Sanada Soehi Line, and Nishimaruko Line. The Bessho Line still exists today as the new Ueda Electric Railway Bessho Line, which connects the Shinetsu Main Line from Ueda to Bessho Onsen. The Sanada Yoyo Line was a line that extended from Ueda in the Tohoku direction to Sanada and Yoyo, and was abolished in 1972 . The Nishimaruko Line is a branch line that connects Shimonogo to Nishimaruko on the Bessho Line, and was abolished in 1963 .

Trains and electric locomotives with desirable appearances gather on four lines with slightly different characteristics, and there have been almost no uncool modernization modifications from a fan's perspective, so it is like a local private railway that is like a model world. It is no exaggeration to say that in a sense a utopia was unfolding.

This book not only reveals the complex history of the vehicle, but also includes the facilities and scenery along the line, and reproduces in detail the appearance of Maruko Ueda at its peak.
