My first day commuting on the Tokyo subway the train stopped two stations short of my destination. Everyone got off the train and it was clearly being taken out of service so I also got off. I didn't know why the train was out of service so I went to the map to see what my options were. By the time I figured out that my line ended and I needed to transfer to the train across the platform it was pulling away. I was the only one left on a platform that seconds earlier had what seemed like a thousand people. A few minutes later I caught the next train but it was a briefly terrifying experience.
...and now I want to go back to Japan.
