that’s the cute train that is commonly seen on social media page.
The Wakayama Electric Railway operate the Kishigawa line, which was used to be a part of the Nankai Railway (and used to be an individual company, history is complex).
Above is the Tama train, and Tama is the famous station master.
This station master is born in 1999 and had been working non-stop for 9 years since 2006. It help to save the Wakayama Electric Railway from death by attracting passenger (magic). So, in 2009, Tama train is introduced to honor its work.
In 2015, this station master become goddess and waiting for your visit at Shinto shrine next to Kishi Station.
Apart form Tama train, 2270 series has different livery:
strawberry train, and strawberry seed can only be purchased in Egg Festival on 13 Spring
Umeboshi Train,To celebrate the Nankoume plums
Tama Train Museum, a part of the Kishikaisei Project
Chuggington Train, that’s…

and according to their official website, tama train is not going to run during chrismas holiday. Check their official website to know which train is going to run on particular day. Twitter maybe useful, if you don’t mind.
