In conjunction with the Okayama Destination Campaign in the summer of 2022, the Tsuyama Line Make Kiha 40 Series Series "SAKU Bi SAKU Raku" will run in July 2022.
The remodeling work will start around February 2022 and aim to complete it in four months.The operation area is the North area of Okayama Prefecture from Okayama to Tsuyama on the Tsuyama Line.
SAKU beauty SAKU Raku is based on one Kiha 40 series dynamic car, and the body color is painted in a pale pink color.
Regarding this color selection, it was reminiscent of the healing caused by hot springs and hospitality, and the famous spots were dotted in the north of Okayama Prefecture, and the color of the cherry blossoms represented by Japan.
The train name is selected from more than 500 applications from all over the country.Incorporates three "saku", which "blooms", which creates beauty and pleasure, "bloom", and "search" that searches for the beauty and fun of the area, and matches the pale pink body color.I decided to named it.

The inside of the car is based on a calm coloring that incorporates green and brown, making it an image of spending in the mountains and forests in the north area of Okayama Prefecture.
