Season 5 Episode 23 - Summer: The Closest Station to the Nuclear Power Plant
Naraha Machi, Fukushima, is located within 20 km of the nuclear power plant that caused the accident. Railroads had been out of service since the earthquake, but finally reopened in June this year. The town is now connected to the city by train. There are still only 9 services a day. Many residents are not allowed to stay overnight in the town and have evacuated to other areas. Even so, people from all walks of life now pass by Tatsuta Station, which is located in the center of the town. Former residents on furlough, workers at the nearby Fukushima Daini Nuclear Power Plant. And visitors from afar, hoping to catch a glimpse of the disaster-stricken area. This is a story of three days at a small station.
