We have created a map of the Uonuma-Tadami Line in Niigata Prefecture, where there is little information available on the Internet.
Myu has won prizes in the 17th, 18th, 19th, 20th, and 21st (2025) Uonuma Photo Contests for the Tadami Line for five consecutive years (JR Tadami Line Grand Prize three times, UX Niigata TV21 Prize, and Drone Category Grand Prize).
That Myu-san would know a lot about it. Let's ask Myu immediately.
Hi, I'm Miyu, a Pomeranian.
I will now introduce you to the Tadami Line in Uonuma.
Oh yeah, I've made a separate feature page about shooting with a drone, so check that out.

First, here are the winning photos from Myu's Uonuma Photo Contest!
Hello!
The Uonuma AmbassadorsEmperor's Birthday (national holiday held from 1868 to 1948)It's.
Nice to meet you.
Myu, where should I start on the Tadami line in Uonuma?
Yes, like the Fukushima side first.famous placeLet's start with.
Fukushima.The first bridge at Mishima Innis very famous!
This is it!
I knew it was famous, and it looks great!
Okay, I'll show you the most famous shooting locations in Uonuma.

Prefectural border stationOverhead view of Ooshirakawa StationIt's the spot to do it.
I just got some winning entries in Canon's Photo Circle.
What a great picture ^^)
This was taken by Myu in February 2022.
Wow!
It is indeed one of the representative spots of Uonuma.
This is an early morning moment, a blue moment that can only be captured at certain times of the year.
I see, it's not a picture you can take anytime you go there.
This is an imitation of a prize-winning work, so the rest is just ingenuity.

Never park in the parking lot of this building. Leave your car at the Ooshirakawa station and walk.

Be careful!
Myu, you are a very good photographer as you say.
But I guess this is the end of the story.
The locals know a lot more than you do.
Let me introduce you to the next famous location.
Next.five-ringed mountain pass(at sentence end) should I?
It's in the middle of the pass, but when the extra trains come in, it's pretty much the same thing.Gekki-PaIt's going to be.
Myuu-san, very pa?
What's that?
Gekki-Pais an iron-chan term that means crowded with a lot of iron
But usually no one is there, so you can take pictures calmly.
It's a peaceful landscape!
Normally, it is a quiet forest road, but it is used as a farm road, and light trucks frequently pass by during rice planting and harvesting season.
Also, in early spring.nudnik (nudnick)are plentiful, so long sleeves are a must to avoid getting stung.
This photo won a prize in the 18th Uonuma Photo Contest by Myu(Niigata Nippo Award)I did.
Don't brag about Myu-san, then tell me the next good thing!
Wan, you're right.
Then it would be seasonal,Suezawa Power Plantis good?
Seasonal, you say?whenShould I go?
Here,Cherry blossoms bloom around GW.So it's that time of year.
This was taken on May 2, 2019.
Wow,Blue sky and cherry blossomsThe contrast of the two fits very well.
But, Myu...
What is it?

I'm surprised you noticed!
Yes, the top is.Kiha 40 seriesand has been in use since the days of the Japanese National Railways (JNR).
But due to obsolescence, it was sadly retired on July 11, 2020.

I see you know a lot.
You two, you seem to have a detail but you've got the important part wrong.

Kiha means "K" for diesel and "Ha" for third class passenger car!
Oh, my God.
Needless to say, this place is seasonal, so it's going to be a "hot mess" every year!
Just because,"The Place Geba."is strictly forbidden.
Hakase-san!
I have no idea what you mean!
"The Place Geba."is a place-holder.
It's called putting down a tripod to get a spot.
of coursestrict prohibitionHowever, there are many photographers who leave their tripods behind the day before.
I went there again this year, but there was no cell phone reception.
Now, without further ado, let's move on to the next point of photography.
Local.Lake Uonuma Rimit is said thatNamiyanagi.
This is the spot between Yabugami and Echigo-Hirose stations!
Pop CloudsThe scenery is so beautiful with the accents of the
This scene is also seasonal.
Here.Substitute shoveling."But when there is no wind, the landscape becomes like a mirror.symmetricalI'm going to be in the picture.
This is a residential area, so there is a lot of traffic.
Let's not get the residents in trouble.
Cars can park in the vacant lot on the other side of the tracks.
But you'll need to be considerate, because it includes private property.
haiyo-yes
Come on, let me introduce you to the next one.
To be exact, it's in Fukushima Prefecture, but it's also a famous location for filming in Uonuma.
Lake TagokuraI can take a lot of pictures at the photo spots around the
This is the location of the photo shoot at the end of the blind curve after exiting the snowshed (tunnel), and you are forced to park on the shoulder of the road, where there is a slightly wider roadside strip for shooting and parking.
We must remember that it is only thanks to well-meaning collaborators and we must be grateful for their help.
Wow!
This issuperb view
Truly breathtaking.superb viewindicates sentence-ending particle indicating speculation, volition or invitation
As Hakase says, watch out for passing cars!

Season of Autumn Leavesis also worth a look.
There's snow on the mountains in the back.
Tadami Line is so fresh!
Tagokura's autumn foliage is also a destination for many tourists.
It's high season this time of year and there's a lot of traffic, so be careful.
This is the place.parking lotand then,Restrooms and Rest AreasThere are
But there are no vending machines,drinkとbento (Japanese box lunch)is preparedgesture
let me see...
Here, parking is available at the Tagokura Rest Area, so you can park there safely.
However, since the photo shoot is from the bridge and the roadside strip is narrow, setting up a tripod will cause problems for the traffic!
The brave can descend to the river surface from the small rise of this bridge, so it is good to take pictures from the river surface.
However, take heart, for it is a steep road.
In addition, this is the place to be.No cell phone reception.because of ...Even in an emergency, a smartphone is useless.You should take this into consideration before you do anything else.

Here's one more cut.
Here's another shot from the bridge I just took.
It gets even better when you get down to the riverbanks.
So you can take two different pictures from one location.
After the Fukushima side and the whole passage, I went back to take some more shots.
