A young boy named Tetsuro Hoshino dreams of escaping the cruelty and inequality of Earth’s Machine Age by obtaining a mechanical body. His journey begins when he meets the mysterious woman Maetel, who offers him a pass for the legendary Galaxy Express 999—an interstellar train that travels to distant planets where dreams, danger, and destiny collide.

During their voyage through the stars, Tetsuro and Maetel encounter oppressive machine rulers, tragic travelers, forgotten civilizations, and the harsh truths behind immortality.
This Signature Edition VHS presents the film in a premium collector format, preserving one of anime’s most influential space epics.
