After putting an end to his salaryman existence, Teruo Ogawa is currently enjoying a second lifetime. The JR Keiyo Line that travels along Tokyo Bay's landfill area and connects Tokyo with Chiba, is a familiar railroad to Ogawa, who in an almost distant past used it for commuting and business purposes. Numerous bedroom suburbs are scattered along this line, the main artery of the Makuhari Messe's business district, industrial areas, and even holiday resorts like Tokyo Disneyland. It provides direct connections to LaLaPort and commercial areas of seaside Makuhari. In a word, the Keiyo Line is a gateway through an ever-changing scenery.
In the old days when Ogawa was still dressed in his daily business suit, whether he was happy, sad, whether he was having fun, whether he was deeply troubled, or happily drunk, the view from the window accompanied him morning and night, pep talking him. The Keiyo Line scenery was like a mother to him, caressing him sweetly through the years. Now, the train is a symbol, filled with memories, that rise to the surface and sink again, whenever he takes that train again.
"A Train with a View" is the emotional discourse of those memories in 50 black and white pictures.
