Train stories

Yesterday, I was reunited with my friends from Wako Kokusai for the first time in a while at my friend's father's wake. On the way home, I stopped at a pub with my friends and came back. I left my bike in Mizuhodai, so I commuted by train. I didn't get bored and took the Tojo Line again this morning lol. I wasn't really in the mood this morning, so [...]

Normally, I would commute by train, but since I didn't leave home late, I changed to a bicycle. As I was casually waiting at the railroad crossing, an 8000 series came along and I took a great photo of it with my α65 (lol) It's not a very good place to take pictures, but I was able to meet a rare 8000 series anyway.

Warm your hands with a can of coffee, watch the trains pass by, and take the photo... Wow, what a luxury. Not luxurious at all? (lol) Doesn't make sense (lol) The α65 is doing well this morning as well. Since it has 24.3 million pixels and continuous shooting is fast, the amount of data increases.

Today, Thursday, was train commuting day, so I got fired up and set out on a railroad-side commuting course with two cars, an α65 and an α560. A snap shot. Just before Tsuruse Station, I pressed the play button to check the photo... "No Memory Card"! ! ! (baku

I went there for a while during work. It seems like the number of people coming together is increasing every year. In front of 8111F, the early face of the 8000 series that left regular operation in June, I was a little nervous because it was so crowded (lol) I pulled up in a little over an hour and stopped at Sakado on the way.

When I'm self-employed, I don't feel like taking time off unless I have something to do. I didn't want to be stuck at work, so I decided to take the plunge and buy the Seishun 18 Kippu. The Seishun 18 Kippu is a ticket that allows you to ride unlimited JR local trains for 5 times in one day for 11,500 yen. One day

I had to go to work in the morning for some urgent work, so in the afternoon I went to my usual Burger King. A little train mode on the round trip to Asaka. The sun was stronger than I expected, and the shadows were crushed... so I immediately retreated lol Just before returning home, I came across a Tobu 30000 series and took a slow shutter.

The Tobu 8000 series is something that every local has seen at least once. The last formation, whose front remained in its original form, was removed from normal operation on the Tojo Line on June 30th (tears). All day long

Since I can quickly find the images I want on the Internet, I have been picking up printed materials less and less these days. Meanwhile, this is the first book I've gotten in a while. A book looking back on Amtrak's 40 years. The publisher is Kalmbach, which is famous for its hobby and railway related works. Soft

I immediately went to the side of the railroad tracks to take a look. Even though it's a new face, it seems like it's an old one sent over from that part of Tobu. Replacement with 8000 series. For now, any increase in variation is welcome. Don't get bored if it's all the same type.
