Since the opening of the railway on October 14, 1872, steam locomotives have been at the heart of propulsion. However, with post-war modernization, their numbers declined, and the last steam locomotive-hauled passenger train on the Muroran Main Line (train 225) ran on December 14, 1975, disappearing from passenger service thereafter.
On the final day, the C57-135 locomotive, adorned with a headmark, pulled this train composed of 8 cars, four more than usual.
