And thats it.Now just click on the EXE iconYou can now enter start and finish stations along with 3 intermeadiate stops if you wish in English then press the box marked, _You will get up to 5 diferent ways of travelling between the start and finish pointsAs an example I entered, Tokyo Shinjuku in _
and sendai in _1then clicked _This gave me 5 different ways to get there in English including line name and the price in Yen (Its roughly 160 Yen to the Pound Sterling)All the JR lines seem to be on it and quite a lot of the other private ones on it too
If you have Windows XP there are lots of Japanese railway programs, simulators and train map programs on here.....

They wont open with 9X but XP should be OK, why not post if you can get any of the others going ?
