“Tetsudo de Hagukumu Saiwai 2026” railway event at the Hiyoshi Branch Office on Nov 3, the same day as Yumemigasaki Zoo’s autumn festival

A railway event at the Hiyoshi branch office on Nov 3

This is an event run by the Saiwai Ward Office to help people enjoy trains. Saiwai Ward has many places where you can see trains and freight trains, including the JR Freight Shin-Tsurumi depot. The event is held every year to share that appeal and help people love Saiwai Ward more.

In 2026 it takes place on Tuesday, November 3 (a holiday), from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. (planned), at the Ward Office’s Hiyoshi Branch Office. Admission is free, with some paid content.

Details of the “Yumemi Railway Stamp Rally” were posted on the ward’s page on Oct 14, 2026. Visit five railway-themed spots in the Hiyoshi area: all five let you join a prize drawing, and three earn a participation prize. Stamp sheets are at each spot, and you can start anywhere.

• Hiyoshi Branch Office (next to the 1st-floor main entrance)
• Yumemigasaki Zoo (observation deck)
• Yumemigasaki Zoo (gazebo in the children’s playground)
• Kotonia Garden (elevator hall of the WEST building, the one with the local produce market on the 1st floor)
• Shin-Kawasaki Station (outside the ticket gates)

For the venue map and the day’s program, see the flyer (PDF) on the ward’s page. Exhibits may change depending on the weather.

In its Oct 14, 2026 announcement, the ward said this is the second year in a row the two events are held on the same day, and that a joint “stamp rally” will take visitors between the two venues.

Yumemigasaki Zoo festival the same day

On the same day, the nearby Yumemigasaki Zoo holds its autumn zoo festival. The ward’s page also notes the two are held on the same day, so you can enjoy both.

There is also a photo display on the Kashimada railway footbridge over the Shin-Tsurumi depot, comparing past and present views around Shin-Kawasaki Station.

No parking; come by train or bus

According to the ward’s page, visitors cannot use the parking lot on the day. Please come by train or bus.
