Aikoku Traffic Memorial Hall Is Famous for Steam Locomotive and Tickets for Happy -Aikoku Station in Obihiro-

Aikoku Station (愛国駅) is a former station in Aikoku-cho, Obihiro city and is named "Aikoku Traffic Memorial Hall (愛国交通記念館)". Particularly, by slogans "From Country of Love to Happiness (愛の国から幸福へ)" created in 1973, tickets from Aikoku station (Aikoku means Country of Love in Japanese language) to Kofuku station (幸福駅) became very popular. However, Hiroo Line (広尾線) was abolished for money-losing routes. Although the Aikoku station was closed down, a station building was stored. Admission free. A parking lot is free of charge.

There are a former station named "Aikoku Traffic Memorial Hall", a Steam Locomotive, a park and a restroom in a site. Railroad-related goods are displayed at the building, and commemorative tickets are pasted on a wall. Visitors can buy this ticket near a shop. This former station is designated as a sacred place for couples, so many couples come. But the parking lot has the restroom and many salarymen often use this place.

Keychain like Ticket is found on Amazon.
