following the timetable revision of spring 2007 , the types of trains in regular service were restructured , and this type was introduced in autumn 2007 in the place of the ' special limited express ,' which is mentioned below . 2007年春のダイヤ改正での定期運転種別再編に伴い、後述の「臨時特急」に代わって2007年秋より設定された臨時列車。
there is no special express train or express train in regular service , but until around 2007 , the limited express train ' maizuru (train )' running between kyoto and higashi-maizuru temporarily ran to obama station extensionally . 定期運転の特別急行列車・急行列車はないが、2007年頃までは京都 - 東舞鶴間の特急「まいづる (列車)」が小浜駅まで臨時に延長運転されていたことがあった。
furthermore , during the time when the limited express " towada " (later replaced by " hakkoda " ), which ran from ueno station to aomori station , was in regular service , the timetable was set to give a rather long standing time for the downtrain (departing from ueno station ) at morioka station during 6:50 and 7:00 in the morning to wait to be overtaken by the successive train , an overnight train service; accordingly , harakomeshi was sometimes sold out when there were many passengers buying the ekiben for breakfast . また、上野-青森間を走行していた急行十和田（のちに八甲田に替わる）が定期運行されていた時代は、下り列車（上野発）では後続の電車寝台特急に抜かれるのを待つため、朝の6時50分～7時間に盛岡駅で停車時間を長めに取るダイヤになっており、多客時には朝ご飯として買い求める乗客で売り切れることもあった。
