This video captured at Amami Station (天見駅) in Kawachinagano City, Osaka Prefecture focuses on various trains running along the Nankai Koya Line during a weekday afternoon in May 2025. Located in a scenic and semi-rural area of southern Osaka, Amami Station serves as a quaint location to observe the movements of both local and limited express trains operated by Nankai Electric Railway.

The footage highlights several different train series that form the backbone of the Nankai Koya Line service. Viewers can see the 30000 series “Koya” Limited Express, which connects Osaka’s central city (Namba) with Gokurakubashi, the gateway to Mount Koya (Koyasan), a UNESCO World Heritage site. In addition, several local train sets such as the 2000, 6000, 6200, and 6300 series are featured arriving and departing, sometimes coupled together in different combinations—this provides rail enthusiasts an opportunity to compare different rolling stock and capture the diversity of the Nankai fleet in operation.

Amami Station itself is known for its tranquil setting and its simple, traditional layout. The video includes shots of the station sign, the entrance area, and the level crossing just outside the ticket gates—a popular place for railfans to film trains at close range. The station is particularly appreciated for its rural charm despite being positioned within the Osaka metropolitan region. Train traffic at Amami makes for an ideal timelapse: the passing of local trains, the stops and starts, and the more dramatic express trains lend a vibrant rhythm to an otherwise peaceful environment.

Kawachinagano City, where Amami Station is found, is a gateway for travelers heading towards the Koyasan area and for those seeking to explore the less urbanized side of Osaka Prefecture. The Nankai Koya Line is famous for its role in transporting pilgrims and tourists up into the Kii Mountains, as well as for its picturesque routes through forests and small towns. Whether you are a railway enthusiast or a traveler considering a trip to southern Osaka and Koyasan, this video offers a detailed look at the area’s rail infrastructure and the rolling stock that keeps this historic line running.
