The “Sagano Torokko Train” runs along the Hozu River, upstream of the Oigawa River, which spans the Togetsukyo Bridge in Arashiyama, Kyoto.  The “Torokko Train” is an art-deco-style 5-car train that is pulled by a diesel locomotive. It takes 25 minutes to travel 7.3km one way from Torokko Saga Station to Torokko Arashiyama Station to Torokko Hozukyo Station to Torokko Kameoka Station, running through the Hozukyo Gorge.  Only one passenger car is connected to the open vehicle “The Rich” without window glass, and you can enjoy a large panorama of Hozu Gorge.  You can enjoy the scenery of the Hozu Gorge in each season, with cherry blossoms in spring, fresh green in summer, colored leaves in autumn, and snowy scenery in winter, but autumn leaves are the best choice.

京都嵐山の渡月橋がかかる大堰川（おおいがわ）の上流、保津川に沿って走るのが「嵯峨野トロッコ列車」です。「トロッコ列車」は、ディーゼル機関車に引かれるアールデコ調の5両編成の客車で、トロッコ嵯峨駅～トロッコ嵐山駅～トロッコ保津峡駅～トロッコ亀岡駅までの片道7.3ｋｍの距離を25分間かけて、保津峡を走り抜けます。客車には1両だけ窓ガラスのないオープン車両「ザ・リッチ号」が連結されていて、保津峡の大パノラマが楽しめます。春は桜、夏は新緑、秋は紅葉、冬は雪景色と、四季折々の保津峡の景色が楽しめますが、やはり一押しは秋の紅葉です。
