Japan Rail
2016-09-28
When you talk about public transportation, Japan leads US in many ways. But most rail systems you see in Japan are not so called "Light Rail". It is full rail system to make sure they provide rapid transportation.
I am happy to see Light Rail systems being developed around Seattle, but Light Rail cannot go very fast. It takes almost an hour to go to airport from Seattle. If the traffic is not there, the same trip tales 20 minutes by car.
