- Worth noticing
- Fare checks are dated, linked to operator sources, and the site openly says when no rail pass is worthwhile.
Field notes
The project dates fare checks to the operator websites it consulted and links each published price to its source. Its Nara framing combines route arithmetic with less typical travel evidence, including sixteen years of blossom records and figures about deer-related injuries. The homepage also acknowledges that some booking links generate commission and that parts of the photography archive remain licensed rather than original.
