東日本大震災が発生した
3月11日のタイミングに合わせて
昨日と今日運行された
SL銀河の試運転列車。
残念ながら今年の6月で
運行終了が決定した名列車は、
たくさんの人に見守られながら
力強く、誇らしげに、
走り去って行きました。
さまざまな想いを乗せて
走る蒸気機関車。
別れを惜しむかのように
長く鳴り続けた汽笛は、
少し寂しげな音に
感じました。

It is "SL Galaxy" which was run a trial
on 11th and 12th of March to match the timing
at Great East Japan earthquake on 11th of March.
Unfortunately, the outstanding SL which was decided to finish running on June this year run away powerfully and proudly
with everyone watching over it.
It is a steam locomotive which has been carried various emotions
for a long time.
The steam whistle continued to sound
as if it was reluctant to part from everyone sounded sadly for me.
