Matsuya Department Store, Ginza
We saw the Model Trains Show which is being held at the Matsuya department store in Ginza. This is the first time I ever really saw really model train sets complete with landscapes and miniature city props. But from the crowds of boys and men there I can see it is quite a popular thing to collect. There are many cool train sets on display showing all the miniatures of the real JR trains, Shinkansen, steam locomotives, and the private railways.
Matsuya Ginza is about a 10 minute walk from Yurackucho station on the JR Keihin Tohoku and Yamanote lines and Tokyo Metro Hibiya line. This station has elevators from all lines.
I know many adult men like Model Trains in Japan. Keiji clazy of that, I guss.
I suppose they are really meant for adults or teenagers since these train sets seem a quite technical and requiring a lot of attention to detail. Hmmm….I wonder how how much of a fan Keiji will be and for how long….
