The Return to Sapporo

Not a bullet, just a four coach local train to Sapporo, a journey of six hours through beautiful countryside.  A unique feature of this train was the swiveling seats.  When the train has to reverse its direction of travel, the seats are turned around to face the other way.   This happened once at a switchback on the track on our way to Sapporo.

Back to tram spotting,

and, unfortunately mall shopping, some thing I managed to mercifully avoid on our first stay in the city a couple of weeks earlier.
