日本最北車站稚內


    從札幌坐了一個多小時到旭川,下車後從第一月台走到第十月台,都沒看到可以轉乘到日本最北車站稚內的班次。距離表定發車時間不到十分鐘,只好硬著頭皮去問站務員。
    「請問這班列車的月台在哪裏?」我指著車票上預約好要轉乘的班次問。
    「去稚內的列車今天停駛,明天也停駛,昨天新聞有報導⋯」
    不會吧?上次要去最東邊的根室,遇到大雨停駛。這次出發前一週,天天都在查詢氣象預報,又被我遇到了?

The Northernmost Train Station in Japan

    The train took 1 hour from Sapporo to Asahikawa. Then, I was supposed to take another train to Wakkanai, the northernmost train station in Japan. I couldn't find the platform for the train, and the train was leaving in 10 minutes. I had no choice but asking the staff with my lousy Japanese.
    "Execuse me, where is the platform for this train?" I pointed the connecting train reservation on my ticket.
    "All the trains to Wakkanai have been suspended today and tomorrow. It was broadcast on the news..."
    WTF? My trip to the easternmost town was suspended due to the weather last month, so I checked the forecast daily before departure. No rain but the train suspended again?
