KQ is more sophisticated than my image !

Last week, I've got on "KQ".

You know what "KQ" means, don't you ?

Of course, it means "Keihin-Kyukou Railway".
You know, we often call it "Keikyu".
So we also EXPRESS this 2 alphabet, don't we ?
(Could you find THIS JOKE?)


When I was a high-school student, I used to use this train.
But in those days, some trains, they were not comfortable.

Without air-conditioner

Spreading lots of smell like "burned-iron"

Going ahead so so slow !!!, especially local train, that it took a lot of
times, you know, even a short distance.

And the number of this "Local Train" wasn't enough....

Because of these reasons, sometimes we got fed up with'em....



And more.......

Sometimes , on the way to home, "many gamblers" ,who have this kinda
gamble-newspaper & "red pencil on their ears", to ride it.

As we used to see them, we used to call that "Keihin-kyukou line very "GAMBLE-LINE"

Certainly, along this line, especially between Shinagawa and around
Yokohama, some GAMBLE-SPOT are stood, you know.

So I haven't had any good impression on "KQ" before...


But.....

In these several years, this "My impression" has been changing !!!

Being able to go direct to "Haneda-Airport".

The number of Local-Train was jumped up double !

Even for (some) local trains, we can get on "High-Grade" trains with
"Box-Seat" !


And it suprised me, too !!!

in the "Rapid-Express (Kaisoku-Tokkyu)", it was unbelievable, "KQ-OWN
Special-TV Program" was broadcasted !!!


I am not sure that since when KQ have been changing.
But no wonder this "Red-Train Company" is going very sophisticated !!
It's very very different compering with before, by far !!!


On this day in this december, it was only 10 minutes I watched it on in the train, so comfortable but short that I didn't feel like getting it off at Yokohama Station !


Oh, I could remember finally !


That "Yokohama-Station" , its platform was built double !!!
That is, each direction has its own platform !

Once I used the train several months ago, as I didn't know that, I tried to
get it off from "Opposite-Side-Door".

Of course, it didn't open, that annoyed me at the moment, you know.

But actually it was ONLY ME who did so...


Ohhhhh, what a shame !!

Even I'm a "Yokohama-Resident".


However, it was a good idea !
Getting on & off the train there is going smoother than before, 'cause here, it is alway very very crowded !


Anyway, KQ, now, it is very COOL, don't you think so ?
I envy the people who live along this railway-line.
Yeah, I DO feel so !!!

So you might think & ask me "why don't you move here?"

Now I don't feel like doin' that.
Cos My apartment is very very comfortable & conbinience !!!

If I had a oppotunity to move, I could choose these areas along KQ, no doubt!


Ahhhh, along "109", it is also good !!!
(I used, so I want again)

............I am afraid I can't decide now which.....
