As a result, the nickname was decided to be “Fukureru,” which means “expanding” the future tourism and future expectations of Fukuchiyama City. The logo design uses a steam locomotive, which is a symbol of the history of Fukuchiyama’s railways and the history of Poppoland, as a motif, and the vehicle runs straight on the rails, illuminating the past history and the future of Fukuchiyama’s railways. It expresses how things are going.
