Yamanote Line at Tokyo Station

Tokyo's most popular train line arrives and departs Tokyo Station during off-peak hours. BTW, the yellow line near the platform edge actually has bumps--for blind people. ("What is that bumpy yellow stripe for?" is a frequently asked question by friends who visit me in Tokyo.) Photos: http://photoguide.jp/pix/thumbnails.php?album=535

Golly, I cannot believe how popular this video has become. Over 100,000 views?? Amazing how the most mundane scenes of Japan are treasured the most.

得するとかそういうことではない

外国に旅行に行った経験はお持ちで？

東京に住む人にとっては日常的であっても、

外の人間にとっては見ること聞くこと全てが非日常なんだよ。

別に日本国内に限ったって同じこと。

興味があるかないか、それだけだ

The commuter rail network of Tokyo is INSANE!!! After 3 months of learning the confusing pattern shifts in my head I still almost got lost several times. Good that at least one line isn't that bad.
