サービス終了…

Service ended...

On my recent business trip to Hiroshima, I took the Shinkansen.

I usually take the car, but this time I was alone, so it's been a while since I took the Shinkansen.

It takes about an hour to get from Hakata Station to Hiroshima Station, so

There are fewer people and it's easier than commuting by train when I was in Tokyo.

When you ride the Shinkansen and look out the window,

The mountains, rivers, and rural scenery spread out and soothe you.

I'm sure this view hasn't changed since I was a child.

This may not change in the future.

It's so peaceful.

That's what I thought when I heard the announcement that I was arriving at Hiroshima Station and went to the deck...

The service has ended.

This is also the era.

I don't think anyone has a phone card these days.

Everyone has a smartphone now, but

Will smartphone service end someday?
