To help foster momentum for Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai, Japan (hereinafter referred to as “the Expo”), the Nankai Railway Rapi:t Limited Express train and Namba Station will be wrapped in the Expo’s “Umi” design theme from 13 April, 2024, one year before the opening of the Expo. The “Umi” design theme, which depicts the harmony and vibrance of life under the sea, was selected as a fitting design for the limited express Rapi:t, which runs along the coastline. This will be the first time that Nankai Railway trains will be wrapped for the Expo.
