Nanpū
The Nanpū (南風; English: "south wind") is a limited express train service in Japan operated by Shikoku Railway Company (JR Shikoku), which runs from Okayama to Kōchi. Trains are formed of 3-car or 2+3 car sets of 2700 series DMUs, and sometimes are coupled with Shimanto services between Tadotsu or Utazu and Kochi.
The main stations served by this service are as follows. Okayama - Tadotsu - Awa-Ikeda - Kōchi
Nanpū services began as a semi express from the former Takamatsu Sanbashi Station to Kubokawa in Shikoku from 1 October 1950. From 1 October 1968, however, the name was used for express trains operating in Kyushu between Beppu and Nishi-Kagoshima. From 15 March 1972, the name returned to Shikoku, for limited express trains operating between Takamatsu and Nakamura. New 2700 series trains started operation in 2019, and completely replaced all older 2000 series DMUs by March 2021.
