Held at the Kanemori Red Brick Warehouse in Hakodate, the Kanemori Train Festival 9 is a popular event that train enthusiasts as well as children and adults can enjoy. At the venue, a giant Plarail layout measuring 5 meters wide and 2 meters high by nationally active popular Plarailer Petazo-san and an L-gauge propulsion mechanism railway diorama by train builder Sekiyama-san will be featured. Visitors can enjoy the charm of railways up close while watching trains run through elaborately crafted dioramas. In addition, diorama exhibits by local N-gauge enthusiasts and sales of railway company and train-related merchandise are scheduled, offering an irresistible lineup for train lovers. Furthermore, Tsutecchi, the mascot character of Aomori Prefecture's Tsugaru Railway, will make an appearance to liven up the venue.
