The landscape was stunning, though sadly it was hard to take pictures from the moving train. We were, however able to people watch at the stations and get some pictures that actually came out. The cart in one of the pictures was where people sold drinks and foods to the passengers. Unlike the trains in Japan where one must be instantly ready to jump off at the stop, here the trains stopped for 20 or 30 minutes and you could get out and walk around or grab some food. The conductors always lined up waiting for their people to return (you couldn’t get on the wrong car, they wouldn’t let you). The people on the platforms were fun to watch too – boredom, excitement, tired – you name it, it was there.
