This batch of clips begins with an evening view of the area under construction on the Seibu Line between Ogawa and Hagiyama. Then the next clip jumps back in time to May of this year, to a view of a street band performing (under an overhang) in the rain. And then there are various things: waiting for trains, boarding trains, riding trains (involving several train lines), viewing an art exhibition, walking by the construction zone in front of Tokyo Station, watching the world roll by from train windows, walking down the street in Shinjuku, etc.

Local Chuo Line Train - Nakano to Higashi-Nakano (101209-0958)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tSfBvgAdwg
Local Chuo Line Train - Nakano to Higashi-Nakano The seats in the six-door car (twelve if you count the doors on both sides) are locked in the up position until 10:00 a.m. (I passed through the car just before ten), and then - at 10:00 - a light comes on by the seats, and they are remotely unlocked and can be pulled down. Later I went back and the car was mostly full of sitting people, except one seat left in the up position. (I had thought the light was a button that caused the seat to electrically come down, but is simply a light indicating that the seat can be pulled down. After many years of riding these trains, I got to try that out for the first time on this ride!)
