It's a Sunday morning at Saijo Station on the JR Sanyo Main Line. The pusher locomotive EF67, which has been pushing an inbound freight train from Hiroshima Freight Terminal up the steep gradient between Seno and Hachihonmatsu (Senohachi), is released at this station. In the early morning hours, there are many inbound freight trains that pass through this station, so the station is very busy with release work and re-tracking the locomotive at a time that does not interfere with passenger trains. 2013.2.3 Saijo Station, JR Sanyo Main Line, Saijo-cho, Higashihiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture
