Trainspotters Bother The Girl From The Viral Train Story
A
After the story became popular, people are visiting the Kamishirataki Station in Hokkaido for the lone train passenger to come out of the train lately
remote Kami-Shirataki station in the far north of Japan has somehow given us some little faith back to humanity: for three years, the same train in the station loads and unloads a single passenger on her way to school. The ride is but a lonely one; but it’ s far better than driving all the way to school by her parents and waking up early for it.
Remember this popular story? When China’ s CCTV News published that story, it got around 90,000 shares online. In its story, it shared:
“ For years now trains have stopped at the station just for her. Japan Railway will keep the train station open until she leaves school. The girl is expected to graduate on March 26, 2016, when the station will then be closed. Every day only two trains stop at the Kami-Shirataki station with a unique timetable depending on when the girl needs to go to school and back.”
As soon as story got out about this feel-good story, people have been annoying and bothering the girl in the story.
Trainspotters are very common in Japan – with attempts to take photos and share videos of trains in the country. However, trainspotters have been targeting the female high school student as their subject for their hobby. They wait for her and as soon as they see her, they harass her with instructions to pose for them.
It seems like the girl has to deal with these pesky trainspotters until her graduation.
