Cycling Across Hokkaido, Japan (Day 1): A train from Sapporo to Nemuro

We had 10 minutes in Kushiro City to transfer to a completely different sort of train – the ubiquitous “oneman” train, found in many rural areas in Japan. As the name suggests, the one-carriage train is essentially a bus on tracks, with just the one driver. On this particular occasion, however, our train happened to have an extra track maintenance guy on board…so I guess that made it a “twoman”?

The image is from Dirt Owl's post. And I need to stop posting for a while and get back to work. Must. Not. Google. I wonder— No, no, no. I'm now taking a 2+ hour break from Hexbear.
