Railway Mania "Tetchan"!


by Kazu

There are a variety of railway mania in Japan. They are called "Tetchan" because railway is called "tetsudo"in Japanese."Tetsu" means "iron" and "do"means "way". Some of "tetchan" love to take the train on the line where only a few trains run per day.  

Some love to take photos of the trains and stations. My wife loves to visit these railway station where very few trains drop by or not in use. The train mania of her alma mater sometimes arrange the train tours and she sometimes takes part in the tours.
To be honest, I can not understand what moves her but I love to see her filled up with satisfaction and happiness. Please do not ask me what interests them so much.
