It wouldn't quite be winter in Tsugaru without the stove train. Enjoy the beautiful winter scenery of the Tsugaru area in a heated site-seeing train. An announcer (speaking in Japanese) even explains the sites. While I haven't had the chance to do this yet (plan to do it during the next couple of weeks), I heard about it from a Japanese friend who lives in Goshogawara, and saw an advertisement for it on the bullet train from Tokyo. It's really close, and it's an inexpensive way to spend a couple of hours on your day off.

* 9:25, 11:40, 14:10 (train departure times from Goshogawara station)
