Locomotive Express|Beitou District, Taipei

The eternal knight in the city strung together Beitou’s local feelings

[Motorcycle Express# A call must reach the mission]
Beitou, except hot springs! There is also a group of "old knights" who are worthy of making a series of introductions. These young knights are not the "riding knights who realize their dreams around the island" as you and I know, but are goodwill ambassadors running around for the convenience of Beitou residents.

The "locomotive service" originated during the Japanese Occupation period, which was dedicated to transporting waitresses and waitresses to and from get off work at the time. Now it has evolved into convenient services such as transporting students, office workers, shopping, sending lunch, and paying fees.

As transportation becomes more convenient and demand decreases, there are fewer and fewer knights who use it as a career. "Old knights" insist on riding for nothing else. They only hope to link local emotions and continue the unique culture of Taiwan.

Next time you visit Beitou and see the rows of locomotive services on the side of the road, you can try the local services that only Beitou has and experience the different styles of Beitou.
