Non-Refurbished Tobu series 8000 train serving the Noda Line!
Thank you for working hard for so long!! Honestly a bit sad to see the Series 8000 refurbished trains slowly disappear from the Noda line considering how iconic they were.
Tobu Series 634 (Formerly Tobu 6050 series) "Skytree Train" at Kasukabe Station on a special excursion!
Very cool and rare train to see! Got very lucky seeing this guy! Wish I had gotten into trains sooner to have been able to see the Tobu 6050 series and ride it from Asakusa to Aizu Tajima though since I am a big sucker of the flat-faced cab rolling stock Tobu has such as the refurnished Tobu 8000 series, 10030 subseries, and 30000 series. As well as all the "NDC" style or based trains a lot of third sector railways tend to use lol.
Curry Ramen from Ajino Daioh in Muroran City
The curry soup was pretty good and it isn't like a typical Japanese style curry! Goes really well with the noodles and seaweed. Would recommend if your planning on travelling near Muroran!
Some mild rain down at Kasukabe
I swear it was sunny an hour ago!!! I didn't bring an umbrella so time to wait under 7/11 for 5 hours until the rain stops 🫠
Rode all of the Utsunomiya LRT!
Finally got the chance to go to Utsunomiya so I decided to overeat Gyoza and Ride the entirety of the Utsunomiya Light Line! I honestly found the LRT quite nice although a bit slow at the dedicated sections. Was pretty busy too! glad to see that Japan's newest Tram has been doing well and can't wait to the JR <-> Tobu extension when that opens in a couple more years or so 😅
Kiha 150 at Tōya station (Hakodate Main line)
Still kinda sad I never got to ride the Hakodate main line back when the kiha 40s were still running through it TwT
Tōyako (Lake Tōya) in Hokkaido
Re-uploaded as I posted the wrong photo 😅
Ran into the Twilight Express MizuKaze at Shin Osaka station yesterday!!
Wish my camera still had battery to take photos but I used it all up at a con... TwT
Accidentally ran into the Twilight Express Mizukaze at Shin Osaka today!!!
Completely accidental too. Turned a great time in Osaka even better and I didn't think this week could get any better since my con haha..
Missing first few days of Winter Semester
I just wanted to ask and see how MRU/ teachers generally goes about with students missing the first few days of class. I'm in the midst of planning a trip somewhere for a convention and unfortunately I will miss the first 2-3 days of class in the winter if I decide to go forward with it. Just asking questions now so I won't have to panic and regret my decisions later on.
Thank you for 29 years of service 500系!
Can't believe it's been almost 3 decades to be honest... Honestly pretty sad to see the 500 series become less and less prevalent even on the Sanyō Shinkansen line over the years.
Need help disconnecting CMOS battery from Gigabyte A5
Please someone, how do I remove this stupid connector from the motherboard. This thing is so fucking tight I can't get it out???
A little question related to rail photography.
I know the yellow tactile blocks are for those who are blind but station announcements usually tell you to stay behind the yellow line. That being said, am I allowed to go out the yellow blocks since the warning on the sign technically says I just can't be outside the gates or do I have to stay within the yellow line?
Questions about the Sunrise Seto
I've been trying to look up information for the Sunrise Seto, specifically the route towards Takamatsu. I've found some really conflicting information and just want to see if I can get some clarification here.
Is the LTD fare and Nobi Nobi seats free with the Jr pass?
Do reservations open a month in advance at 10 AM like typical ltd express trains?
Can I reserve tickets at the green ticket machines or do I have to go to the Midori No Madoguchi? + are these bookable online?
Silly question but for confirmation does the Seto stop at Osaka?
How fast do the communal Nobi seat areas get fully booked? (Aug 1)
