More Metro Fun


The Japanese really look after thier blind folk, these yellow tiles are everywhere.


These ones are on the Metro but they are also found on the streets. The straight line tiles let you follow by feel (from under-foot) and the bobbled ones mark a transition (in either direction or in this case stairs). Very cool!


More great Japanese posters, this one is 'Metro Manners Lesson 12' - you heard Bert & Ernie, get off the train, people can get off more easily - do you really need the Sesame street gang to tell you that...


I liked this one - this features in the 'Courtesy' zones. The big round logo on the left always reminds me of the stereotypical alien head you see in movies :¬)

Basically it's a give up ya seat if you see the Old, Pregnant (although you could get away with being really fat), with child or one broken leg. If you do, 'Your kindness will be greatly appreciated' ;¬)
