The guide tried to stop the train by hitting the window with his hands, but it didn’t stop. Instead, the police arrested him after seeing him on the station camera. He told them that he had to get back to his group on the train, but they didn’t believe him. They called the Cassiopeia, and luckily the conductor said that he was telling the truth. But how did the he get back to the train? A police officer took him to Fukushima by Shinkansen. When the Cassiopeia came into the station, he got back on. It was still early in the morning, so no one on the tour ever found out! (by Prof. Doulas Jarrell)

There was a tour guide who loved trains. He was very happy a few years ago when he had a chance to take a group on the Cassiopeia, an overnight luxury train from Sapporo to Tokyo. The train made a stop in the middle of the night, probably to take on food and drinks. Because it was so late, the train doors opened quietly. The tour guide got off wearing just a sweat shirt and sweat pants and brought his cell phone with him. He went to the front of the train and took a picture. Just then, the doors closed and the train started to move. (Read Part 2 in No. 445. By Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
