There's a crew member haranguing people with a miniaturized megaphone.    The bus is passing~, the bus is passing~!

This bus center visit video is Tokyu Tsunashima Station Bus Terminal in Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture. Tsunashima Station, which is famous as a switchback bus terminal, is served by Tokyu Bus, Yokohama Municipal Bus, and Rinko Bus.

love that flick, saw it when it came out at the drive in when I was a kid. Was pretty shocking on the big screen with those scenes.

In 2018 I was in Takao (actually, I almost always visit Takao when I'm in Hachioji). Next to the station they had a bus turntable, think this was due to lack of space. By the time I took this picture, they had already extended the area and drove around the turntable for changing direction of the busses.

 

 

Maybe I have to check this summer if it's still there.

I found a map of all the bus lines of Greater Tokyo.  https://twitter.com/yukai3chome/status/1753637116675068086

 

What's the best way of folding it?  😉

Squeezing down the traffic cones might be the most difficult part.

But you need those to block off the area when you get the map out!

Didn't see Thomas in these pages.  Taken this last November on the east side of Tokyo Station.  I have to admit I did not even know there was a Thomas Land.
