Japan | Railway enthusiasts must check in! Arakawa Line of Toei Subway!

The tram runs closely along the eaves of the houses. On one balcony, there are ten tomato pots lined up, and a big black cat is sunbathing next to them. You can also see children blowing soap bubbles in the courtyard, and the beautiful song of Ishida Yuumi coming from somewhere, even the smell of coffee is drifting. The tram runs smoothly like stitching such an intimate backstreet. - Haruki Murakami, "Norwegian Wood" The only remaining streetcar in Tokyo runs between Sanrinbashi and Waseda, full of nostalgia. It's like the trams in Qianmen, with a ding-ding bell ringing before departure at each stop. Near Mt. Tobu, it shares the road with cars and waits for traffic lights, giving way to pedestrians. Spent almost half a day walking along this line, weaving through the streets and alleys behind Tokyo. Most of the passengers on the train are elderly people and mothers with children. Approaching the end of work hours, only a few employees wearing suits were seen. And because of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, the Arakawa Line is now renamed as Toden Sakura Tram, so I must come back to experience the cherry blossom season again, there will definitely be a different feeling~ Railway enthusiasts, must check in~
