Mike Edwards<p>Yesterday, we caught an express train north to Oita. JR is an absolutely world-class rail system, but even excellent services have glitches, and our train was stuck half way through because of a tree that fell on the tracks. </p><p>They got everyone off the train and on a bus. They ran out of room before a bunch of us got up there, though, so the station manager flagged down a bunch of taxis. We got a private car to Oita on JR's yen.</p><p>NJ Transit would never.</p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/japan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>japan</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/trainTravel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>trainTravel</span></a></p>
