It was already 10:50 AM when I entered the Osaki station. I was expecting to catch the 10:52 Rinkai Line train for Tennouze Isle, my office in Tokyo.
Walking really fast, I had a glance on the platform display board. What! the platform number 6 is expecting the 9:34 AM train...... Train running this much late in JAPAN!!
Unbelievable... specially when it is the wonderful spring season around with no sign of nature's fury.
It was unbelievable as it is the rarest truth in Japan. On inquiry, a gentleman informed that the train is late due to an "accident". Another surprise!! Accident in japan?? It is the country where people are so honest with their work that an accident is almost unimaginable.
Later on I learnt the definition of accident for Japanese - Any problem in running the train is termed as accident here.. and this time, two trains were running on the same track crossed their proximity limit...
Hats off to the Japanese...
