went to workout with SOGO today in Yoyogi park. So hot! But still fun, though at times I felt kinda close to passing out.

noborito station is getting a new southbound line

18:34 Sunday 27 August 2017 JST

I have been taking (but not really posting) pictures of the new train line in Noborito station. I guess it's part of the campaign Odakyu has been announcing that they will reduce the congestion on the line, and even decrease the time required to go to Shinjuku.

Anyway, they did something which surprised me: put down the rails, locked them down, then took them back up before laying them down again.

The second time, the rails were pre-welded together, so that's something, but ... why lay them down in the first place? Could someone have said "Oh snap! We forgot to weld them!" ??? I sincerely doubt it. Why would they put the rails down twice? To make sure they have enough? To make sure they fit? Seems like an expensive process; rails are heavy!
