Wait is the Fukushima train livecam back online?
Can someone post the Japan livecam pastebin list?

>>16708
Was it suppose to be down at any time? And I don't know of a livecam pastebin.

>>16709
It went down for over a year when Fukushima was evacuated.

Bleep.

i loved the snow we had in january

>>18847
I am actually mad I completely forgot to check out the stream during January.

A red train!

It seems like that on the 31th of March they are going to kill the stream. I can't fucking believe it.

>>18883
Reminder that the stream is entering its last hours.
Or maybe it is just an April 1st joke. Maybe.

Bumping the thread with the new mini github site in the OP.
Aizu has been gone for over a year now, but there are some other streams to enjoy too. Stream recommendations to add to the list are welcome.

What are you look at, zaku?

What a pleasant little station. Shame the resolution isn't better.

A shame there are basically no trains in America. They're so cool.

This is Vanderbilt et al's fault, private railroads can't support their own maintenance cost to the point that every one in the US bottlenecks in Chicago. Passenger rail has to rent the tracks they're using from the freighters who own it and even though most of them were built with public money back in the day upgrading or building new lines just doesn't happen now. It would certainly be cheaper and faster than the road system that is crumbling now since we've delayed repairing it for 50 odd years off what it was designed to withstand.
The US infrastructure in general is abysmal on all fronts, but at least it's not China.

It's a shame because there's a lot of money that could be used, but governments choose to allocate it to dubious (at best) stuff. With that said, even if our passenger rail system was ameliorated and expanded, I have doubts that it would be used enough that to justify the costs.
Also the Washington D.C. Metro is an abortion, and I hope to visit a country with a working rail system so I can jack off to that.

It can easily justify the costs on the two coasts, as the distances there are short enough. However that would require changing many other laws and priorities too, as USA just doesn't want public transport. Ironically, that's part of the legacy of the racists, as not killing the existing public transport during the first half of the last century would have benefited the niggers. So go ahead and speak sensibly about this in the current political climate; you just can't. Either you'd be "race-baiting", or the actual racists would be against a measure that would benefit poor whites too.

I was on Amtrak a while ago when the train was stopped and fell behind schedule because a passenger accused another of trying to steal his phone. The cops arrived and he yelled about how he didn't do anything.

The cops checked their database and found there was an unrelated outstanding arrest warrant for him. They arrested him for the warrant and dropped the phone case while he kept yelling about how he didn't do anything.

When I finally got off at the station, there were beggars arguing with the cops, just like there always are, except when there's no cops around and the beggars harass random passengers instead.

I'm sure you already know all the people I'm complaining about and half the cops were black. Talk about racists all you want, but that won't change the fact that US public transportation is unsafe, the problems often involve blacks, and if all Americans were magically replaced by Japanese people, public transportation would become safe and comfortable overnight.
