Ouch indeed. Adelaide has 88, and I've never set foot on 70 of those. :?

I seem to recall reading, somewhere, that most Japanese rural railway stations used to sell their own regional-specialty bento box, which became a feature of most long-distance JR trips. Many stations were also cared for by the local residents, so tended to look different from station to station.

Rasberry would probably like this show. And maybe Dhumahn as well, though he's probably more interested in the trains, rather than the stations. 8)

Now if only they would make an anime that is an historical recount of Formula One.... I could dig that.
