The Tokyo Subway

Today as we were riding around Tokyo on the subway I noticed that it was a lot like other subways I had been on. Oddly enough, it reminded me of the Tube, in London, more than anything. Of course the stops all had different names and the advertisements and signs were all in Japanese. However, the design of the stops, the smell, the way the ticketing counters were positioned, the sound of the cars, the design and interior of the cars and even the steps inside the station all reminded me of London. Call me crazy, but it was all strangely familiar.
