This year marks the 36th year since the transition from JNR to JR . Diesel trains, which have been active mainly in non-electrified sections since the days of Japan National Railways, are finally coming to an end.

This book is a ``comprehensive edition'' that can now be sent out about these JNR-type diesel trains, which have been introduced in large-scale articles in Rail Magazine from time to time. The main product is the Kiha 40 series, which has spread throughout the country from Hokkaido to Shikoku and Kyushu. Although he has already retired from JR East and JR Tokai, he is still active in various places as the face of local lines. In addition to these, we will also discuss the Kiha 66 and 67 types that have been retired in recent years, as well as these Japanese National Railways diesel trains that have been transferred to private railways.
