"Morning Tokyo Trains in 1991"

Morning Tokyo trains, all taken on the same morning as the famous "Sardine Run" video (including some of that too), mainly from 6:00 a.m. until 8:00 a.m. on the Seibu-Ikebukuro Line.

この時代は冬になるとスキー持った人が沢山居ましたね。

@70station そうですね。 スキーは、結構人気だった。 スノーボードは、まだ人気無かったし...

Don't worry about a heater in winter: everybody's warming everyone else up in such a crowded car... right?

[lylehsaxon]

@KaleunMaender77 Basically, except they would turn on the seat heaters at the beginning of the line, before the train got crowded. By the time it got really crowded, it would sometimes get hot inside and someone would open a window a little to get more air in. - LHS
