Departures (closing dates)

DATEWHATWHERELEFT

“Left” counts from today's date on your device. Red means under 30 days.

Old trains you can ride

All of these carry passengers. Oldest first, then the newer ones on their way out. Each card says where to catch it.

Anywhere, while they last

Already gone (don't go looking)

Links open Google Maps. Train routes start at Shiki Station, and the train links leave the departure time empty, so set it in Maps. Pins search by Japanese name and can land a little off for big buildings. Dates come from the linked news sources. “At risk” means a confirmed plan, delay or shrinking, with no fixed end date.
