HIKARIAN Great Railroad Protector

Introduction:
     Our heroes are the electronic locomotives of the bullet trains swishing on the railroad at tremendous speed everyday. Pulling cars full of passengers is not the only thing they have to do. They also have a secret mission -- To protect the railroad and our planet earth from alien invasion. When a mysterious light full of unknown energy falls onto earth, it strikes and penetrates the bullet trains. This energy of light provides power to transform the bullet trains into gigantic flying robots called "Hikarian."

Story:
      A blazing light traveling in space from the end of the universe comes to earth. It strikes the bullet trains running at full speed. Mysteriously the light goes inside the trains and unites with the electronic locomotives. This energy empowers the bullet trains to transform into big robots. Thus, our heroes called "Hikarians" are born. Hikarian is the collective name of the transformed super expresses.

     Earth is in danger. Alien invasion has started. The "Bratcher Force", from a black hole in deep space, sneak into earth's atmosphere. Their scheme, "Operation Darkness," is to blacken the world.
