AdvertisementA new railway station has opened in Japan without an entrance, exit or a ticket machine. Located on the Nishikigawa Seiryu line in the south of the country, the station is called Seiryu-Miharashi, which translates to 'clear stream viewing platform station'. But those wanting to head for Seiryu-Miharashi should check the timetable in advance because the station has limited opening hours. Meanwhile last year, another train company in Japan was forced to issue an apology after its service left ahead of schedule - by 25 seconds. West Japan Railways apologised for the 'great inconvenience' after one of their trains at Notogawa Station, in Shiga, mistakenly pulled away from the platform.
