[FAO] ON TRAIN

(Please let the pics open. It may take some time on a slower connection)                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Ever been on a train this nice? Only in Japan! Believe it or not, the photo above is of a train interior in Japan! With the results looking nicer than most nurseries, the Japanese have taken the idea of child-friendly public transport to the next level with these 2 beauties, both designed by eiji mitooka. He was the artistic force behind omoden (toy train) and ichigo ec (strawberry train), a couple of regional trains which travel on a daily basis on the 14.3km kishigawa line in japan. The Japanese are intent on making train travel a more comfortable experience for everyone, women and children especially, and the results are incredible. Both trains contain hundreds of toys, TV screens showing cartoons, immaculately clean wooden flooring and cots for younger children. Call me cynical but I can't imagine anything like this emerging in India unless it was an attraction at a theme park. and here's the strawberry train which runs on the same line Need More Interesting Stuff???
