The "Green Frog," a vintage Tokyu 5000 series train, is now located in Odate, Akita, near the Akita Dog Museum. Originally displayed in front of Shibuya Station's Hachiko statue, it was moved here as a symbol of the sister city relationship between Shibuya and Odate. Visitors can explore the interior of the train, which retains its original features like the long seats and driver's cab, offering a nostalgic glimpse into the Showa era. It's a must-see for railway enthusiasts and those looking to experience a piece of Tokyo's history in Akita. Open from 9:15 AM to 4:45 PM, it's easily accessible with a 5-minute walk from Odate Station. Note that it is closed during the winter.
