The Enigmatic Sight of Freight Trains in Kobe
Kobe is serviced by the JR (Japan Railways) lines. I often use JR to get to Sannomiya or Osaka. One of the things that surprised me when I came to Kobe was the sight of freight trains running regularly.
While waiting on the platform, long freight trains pass by. This is something I had never seen in the town where I grew up, so I found it very curious. It feels strange to encounter so many freight trains in my daily life as I commute to work by train.
