Technical Details
Real-Life History
C53 45 is based on Japanese National Railways (JNR) Class C53 No. 45, displayed at the real Kyoto Railway Museum.
C53 45 was built in 1928 by Kisha Seizo. C53 45 spent most of it's life at the Umekoji depot and was deregistered on 1948, saving it from scrapping. C53 45 was exhibited at the JNR Suita Railway School for educational purposes, and later moved to Takatori Works 1957. It remained in a dilapidated condition for a long time.
In 1961, the engine was exhibited at the newly opened Modern Transportation Museum. The engine was then repaired and restored to it's original form at Takatori Works. It was then exhibited at the museum until the Umekoji opening.
In 1972, C53 45 was moved to Umekoji Steam Locomotive Museum (later the Kyoto Railway Museum).

D51 1
D51 1 is a tender engine from Japan who lives in the roundhouse at the Kyoto Railway Museum.
Technical Details
Real-Life History
D51 1 is based on the real Japanese National Railways (JNR) Class D51 2-8-2 "Mikado" built by Kawasaki. The D51s were primarily used as goods locomotives and were an adaptation of the earlier Class D50. 1,115 class D51 locomotives were built between 1936-1951, becoming Japan's most mass-produced steam locomotive. In addition to those in Japan, members of this class have been built for export to South Korea, Taiwan and the USSR, totalling 1,194 locomotives. Over 170 of these engines are preserved throughout Japan, two of which are in working order, while four are preserved in Taiwan (Taiwan Railways DT650) and eleven in Russia (Soviet Railways D51). Unlike the D51s in Japan, Taiwan and Russia, the D51s in South Korea have no smoke deflectors. Hiro and D51 398 are other members of this class.
