Orphan presents the first English-subtitled version of Toei's 1974 feature-length cartoon, *Kikansha Yaemon: D51 no Daibouken* (*Yaemon the Locomotive: D51's Great Adventure*). This is a heart-warming story about a tired but game D51 steam locomotive and the lonely boy who loves him... Yeah, exactly. About a third of the movie is live-action shots of trains, mostly steam locomotives in action: %20%5B4D04708C%5D_001_33242.png) The rest is a story about Yaemon's struggle to stay relevant in age of increased electrification and high-speed travel. He is dismissed by the other engines in the roundhouse; his only supporters are the boy Tadashi and his crew of mice. %20%5B4D04708C%5D_001_28454.png) %20%5B4D04708C%5D_001_12343.png) Encoded from an R2J DVD.
