The above bronze will be welcoming guests at the new Hakodate-Hakuto Station come March 26. The Hakkaido Line will connect Honshu, Japan’s main island, to Hokkaido, it northern island in the town of Hokuto. The current Oshima-Ono Station is being remodeled and named the New Hakodate-Hakuto Station. The towns name Hokuto roughly translates into “North Star” hence the bronze statue from Fist of the North Star that will be welcoming passengers as they arrive at the New Hakodate-Hakuto Station.
