The victim of a railway accident that left him orphaned—which occurred near the end of the age of rail closures—he set out to repay the family that adopted him, after pulling out of a state of depression that sapped his will to live. Often emotionally despondent, he is viewed by some as being very logical, and by others as lacking humanity. He left his adoptive hometown of Ohitoyo to go to college but has returned upon hearing that there are plans to build an aerocraft factory there which will pollute the town's rivers. He awakens Hachiroku by accident and is then forced to confront his past with the railways that took his family.

“In 3/8 of 1914 AD, I was completed one month prior to the manufacture of the 8620 top model.” Former Imperial Railway 8620-type locomotive top number, exclusive Raillord. Before the dismantling of the Imperial Railway, she was purchased together with 8620 and brought to Ohitoyo. Her abilities were fitting for the top locomotive: knowledge, intelligence, culture, and refinement—the epitome of Japanese beauty. But her abilities have severely deteriorated upon awakening, causing her much grief. She never shows any weakness, except to Soutetsu, and maintains a dignified look wherever she goes. She is an able Raillord that continues to produce results.

“My birthday? 12/18… Yes, that’s it! It’s that red brick building!

“My birthday? 12/18… Yes, that’s it! It’s that red brick building! My birthday is the same as the Imperial Station; the pride of Japan!” Succeeding her late father’s will, this young Ohitoyo mayor and president of the Ohitoyo Railway leads the movement against the building of the aerocraft factory. She is also the engineer for the Kiha-07s train and is close to the Raillord for said train, Reina. She loves railways and can’t stop talking about them when given the chance. Her sense of responsibility and integrity is profound to the point of abatement, sometimes crushing her under its weight. But with Reina’s easygoing personality, she is able to maintain her sanity. She feels that Soutetsu can be relied upon, but she tries not to do so. Due to her natural proclivities, she is regularly taken advantage of.

“My birthday is on 10/25. I actually share that with a really amazing painter. Who? Umm… look it up yourself, please.” Migita Soutetsu’s adoptive sister who is a lover of the arts and employed drawing signboards and maps of Ohitoyo. Always earnest and optimistic, she is the kind of person who can find the silver lining of a situation without fail. She lives in the shadow of her older sister, however, which causes her to hide her love of art. Soutetsu convinces her that it’s not wrong to love what she does, which earns him her respect and is made all the more pronounced by the budding feelings she has for him that go beyond mere admiration. Unfortunately, she is too embarrassed to admit this and refuses to be honest with him.

“Reina’s birthday? Hehe. It’s 3/26. I was made on the same day as the train.” Raillord for Ohitoyo Railway train Kiha-07s. She is smaller than other Raillords and is laid back by nature, but becomes indispensable for the mine railway later on. She possesses much life experience as she has seen the rise and fall of the coal mines with her own eyes. There is nothing in this world she dislikes and, as a result treats everything positively. She’s also naturally good at getting people to spoil her. Being well-liked by animals and babies, some go so far as to say she’s actually communicating with them at times.
