N'EX is already cheaper than the bus fares it seems.

well. keisei express is 2000 with a reserved seat but a bitch of a location to get to.

bus fares are at like 3000 and still a bitch to get to.

i rather do the train route just to avoid traffic. but with all these fucks jumping in front of trains... buses dont seem that bad... seem...

That all depends on where you live. It's like 10 minutes by bus or 8 minutes by train from my place. Of course, the regular subway only takes an hour and 10 minutes with 0 or 1 transfer depending on which one I catch so I have little desire to use the Kesie Express or the NEX.

Considering the population of the area, there should be four or five international airports in the Tokyo area, all connected to the closest prefectural capital with high speed rail.

There have now been five suicides at Shin Koiwa since July. Train drivers must get nervous as they approach the station now.

That brings up a question.

What happens to the driver after someone has jumped in front of their train? Do they just carry on? Take the rest of the day off? Do they have to undergo some kind of trauma counseling, or do they have a choice? I'm guessing most of them would be pretty shaken by the experience.

My guess is they have to write a formal written apology for allowing the train to get behind schedule and inconvenience customers, and promise to do some self-reflection. ;)

    In 2002, the Mainichi's Waiwai had to retract fun report of train jumper lore because it was true.
    Some reports same it's not "fine" per se, but lawsuit requesting damages (which most Japanese immediately settle out of court to avoid more public embarrassment)

I've heard that often families do not pay. A friend of a guy I was working with jumped and his family was not fined.

Really.
The station staff and train personnel subjected to a jumper get monetary compensation coming from the suicide victim's family and next-of-kin. The way I heard it [color="Silver"](urban legend?)[/color], station personell who have to touch the dead get paid 40,000yen each for their trouble. The train's engineer/driver gets changed out when that is practical (or finishes the run if he's in the middle of nowhere) and he gets the rest of day off.



Sounds a little Deathrace 2000ish. I wonder if any drivers actually speed up for the holiday and cash.

Another Shin-Koiwa suicide just after 11pm last night. Not the Narita Express this time. Some reports say a woman sat on the tracks about 500m away from the station.

Fines from private companies don't stick... anywhere that I know of, definitely not in Japansas. They'd have to go through the legal process... and then those fines don't really stick either from what I've heard. If someone in my family killed themselves and someone came and asked me for 3 million yen, I'd throw one of them in front of fucking train. Probably his dog too. I'd then give 5-man or so to the clean up crew and 10-man to the driver which I know doesn't fix the trauma, but it's something.

3 mil? Haha.

Indeed!

...but I can still imagine some families being convinced that it's the "We Japanese" thing to do and pay them off.

I wonder though, if the suicide "victim" has his/her assets seized for compensation. How could anyone be against that?

But you feel some joy in it I know;) . Otherwise why spend so much time on it? There is some glee in the thought of the limbs of the same people that treat you like a third class citizen, flying in all different directions. If you are honest you will admit it. Though not in public maybe.

Are you asking if I enjoy riding on the train? Well, that all depends on whether a honey is pressed up against me, and I might add that I obey the strip club mentality wherein they can touch and grope me, but I cannot touch or grope them, at least until they buy me dinner.
Sorry that this place (Japan and Fuckedgaijin) doesn't work for you. It works for some people, some people get it, and have risen above the pettiness, and that must be really irritating to you.

Usually the people those limbs belong to are the victims of the same retard level circular logic society as FG...not "people that treat you like a third class citizen." If some racist asshole went splat in front of me, I would be quite happy knowing that many years of abusive poo will now cease to spew from where his mouth was...but "joy" :rolleyes: not so much
