The Kitami Express was replaced by the H100 series in the March timetable change. It has now happily returned to a two-car formation. June 7th update: It was a mystery why the Kitami Express was returned to a two-car formation this time, but it seems that it is related to the downgrading of the "Daisetsu" to a rapid service. It seems that the Kitami will also be operated with a two-car H100 series formation.
