If you ever thought train stories needed more university pressure and discoveries on rails, get ready for a journey that blends daily life with colorful encounters. The project Tetsuryo! Meet with Tetsudo Musume has just confirmed its premiere for October 2026. The animated adaptation expands the franchise Tetsudo Musume, which celebrates two decades and already features over a hundred girls personifying real uniforms from Japanese railway companies in games, merchandise, and other media.

The plot follows four university students who are train enthusiasts and form the Tetsudo Ryoko Doko-kai, nicknamed Tetsuryo or the Railway Travel Club. Overwhelmed by daily routine, they decide to seek adventures by exploring different locations, visiting stations, and meeting various Tetsudo Musume who work in railway-related roles around the world. The tone combines elements of daily life with the excitement of train travel, discovery, and light interactions between the club members and the cast of railway girls they meet along the way.

Production with experience in camps and adorable crises

Direction is handled by Misuzu Hoshino, who has previously worked as an episode director on Yuru Camp and directed Hokkaido Gals Are Super Adorable! and The Maid I Hired Recently Is Mysterious. Aya Satsuki serves as the series composer and writes the scripts, with credits in Solo Camping for Two, “Ippon” Again! and Too Cute Crisis. Character design is by Hisanori Hashimoto, known for his work on the third season of Yuru Camp. The original music is composed by Sonosuke Takao, and the ending theme “Watashi Miraisen” (My Future Line) is performed by the Tetsuryo club unit within the story. The original concept comes from TOMYTEC in collaboration with novelist Kisetsu Morita, author of I’ve Been Killing Slimes for 300 Years and Maxed Out My Level.
