The commemorative project involves exhibiting the "Nikko-moe Spacia," which has played an active role as a bridge of friendship between Japan and Taiwan, at Taipei Station of the Taiwan Railways Administration (TRA). This marks the first time that a Tobu Railway express train has been exported overseas.
The transportation was a large-scale project that involved land transport from the train depot in Tatebayashi City, Gunma Prefecture to Chiba Port, loading onto a ship at Chiba Port, sea transport to Taipei Port, and even local transportation and installation at the station's exhibition hall.

To safely and efficiently transport the railway cars, which weighed tens of tons in total, Logisteed Group leveraged its extensive experience in transporting heavy goods and completed the project under meticulous process management.
Tobu Railway and Taiwan Railways Administration (TRA) signed a friendship agreement on December 18, 2015. Since then, they have promoted tourism exchange between Japan and Taiwan through mutual customer referral campaigns, collaborative PR events, and mutual facility tours.
