JNR DF50 Shikoku Type
 
●The DF50 is a diesel locomotive whose prototype was manufactured in 1957 to make non-electrified sub-main lines smokeless, and which was added to the fleet until 1963. The power transmission system is an electric system that drives the main motor with direct current generated by a generator directly connected to the diesel engine. Among them, the 0 series was equipped with an engine manufactured by Shin Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, which was in technical cooperation with Swiss company Sulzer, and was widely used in the Shikoku region, including on the Dosan Main Line (now the Dosan Line).
