During the Great East Japan Earthquake, the affected areas, where roads and transportation facilities were damaged across the board, suffered from a serious fuel shortage. At that time, one company stepped up to ensure the lives of the victims, rescue operations, and the transportation of relief supplies. It was JR Freight, sometimes mocked as JR Baggage. JR Freight was supported by the various JR companies centered around JR East and many related companies, and worked tirelessly to restore and operate emergency oil trains. As the saying goes, "the unsung hero," I would like to introduce the people who worked silently without being in the spotlight, and who helped lay the foundation for the subsequent recovery. I would like to thank the two people below for their kind permission to use their images in the creation of this video. I also used valuable images from the Internet.
