Seibu Ikebuburo Line, Seibu Ikebuburo to Sanno Station

[Sacto1985]

YouTube user haijimakaisoku filmed this zenmen tenbou video of a trip on the Seibu Ikebuburo Line from the Seibu Ikebuburo Station all the way to Hanno Station, a full trip on the line:

 

 

Note this video was taken before the schedule changes with the Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line that allowed for a full run-through operation all the way to Yokohama.

One of those videographers that pose puppets in front of their lenses.  To each his own, but it's still kind of weird seeing a pot-bellied fortyish dude doing it on a station platform,as I witnessed at Takasaki.

I think everyone likes this video because it appears the YouTube member is fairly fluent in English and pointed out in clear English all the stations along the Seibu Ikeububuro Line from Seibu Ikeububuro to Sanno stations.

Yes that's probably the reason for the many likes. I've unfortunately seen many Japanese videos that have as many dislikes as likes, and some very rude comments from some members all because the video is not in English. Obviously idiots who think the whole world should speak English just because they do, disgusting behaviour.

One way I find these videos is to use both Google Translate and the English Wikipedia to find the Japanese name for the rail line. I enter it into the YouTube search and find a lot of videos of long train trips, especially if they include the words zenmen tenbou (前面展望) in the title.

By the way, the same poster also filmed a video going the other way from Sanno to Seibu Ikebuburo:
