Bunkyo, Tokyo, Japan - June 8, 2026: A silver commuter train with orange stripes runs along an ivy-covered embankment above a narrow river in Yushima, Bunkyo ward. The train includes double-deck cars and passes a second train with yellow stripes on a parallel track behind it. In the foreground, a pair of rusted rail tracks crosses the dark water on a white-sided bridge and leads toward a tunnel portal set into the green slope. Further along the curving channel, a green steel arch bridge spans the river between rows of low-rise buildings. Glass office towers rise on both banks under an overcast sky, and cars move along a road on the left bank.
