Galaxy Express 999 Special Train!

September 9, 2009 is just a normal date for almost everyone…I said almost! This date was an excuse for fans of Galaxy Express “999″ to celebrate the occasion…After all, it is 9/9/09!

Galaxy Express 999 is a manga written and drawn by Leiji Matsumoto, as well as various anime films and TV series based on it. It is set in a space-faring, high-tech future in which humans have learned how to transfer their consciousnesses (but not their consciences) into mechanical bodies, thus achieving practical immortality.

They took an steam train and recreated many scenes of the Galaxy Express 999 manga. Everything happened in Shizuoka, Japan! Here are some nice photos of the unusual experience.

I am sure this is a train, the Galaxy Express 999 fans don´t want to miss!
