Kato HO EF81 81 North star color scheme

EF81 Unit 81 The Hokutoboshi color is a former summon train traction machine with the Hokutoboshi logo on the side and silver decorations unique to the summoning train traction machine in various places.

Among the EF81s belonging to the Tabata Driving Station, which is responsible for the star operation of the sleeper limited express "Hokutosei", Unit 81 is the only one with a beautiful silver jug, which is a proof of the former summoning train, on each part. The operation at the Tabata Driving Station was not limited to towing the sleeper limited express "Hokutosei", but was also widely used in towing "Akebono", special trains, freight trains, etc. From August 26, it was restored to the red No. 2014 (rose pink) summoning paint and is still active today.
