San-in Line Train 2008/5/18 01:40
I'd like information about this colourful train, 山陰本線観光列車 みすゞ潮彩, which appears to run along the San-in coastline. I saw it on this website http://www.tawarayama-onsen.com, but I cannot read Japanese.

I'd like to travel on it sometime in mid to late November this year, and would like to know where it goes from and to, how long it takes and how much it costs. Any assistance or information in English would be appreciated.

The timetable for November is not published yet, but the trains seems to be running daily with the exception of some short periods.

In 2007, for examplem it run daily during November, but then it was not running from December 3-7.

How long does it take? 2008/5/18 10:20
Thanks Uji.

How long does the trip take from Shimonoseki to Senzaki? Does the train run in both directions? Could it be done as a day trip from Shimonoseki?

I want to go to O-mi-jima Island, and am wondering whether to go up there as a day trip from Shomonoseki, or whether to stay there overnight and continue to Akiyoshido Cave, stay overnight there, and then on to Hiroshima?
