Businesses are gearing up for the 2025 World Expo in Osaka, and the operator of the subway is no exception. Osaka Metro has unveiled a new carriage design for the trains that take people to the venue.
The firm has been extending one of its lines to reach the venue. It has also been installing signage in multiple languages to prepare for the influx of tourists.
Metro official Yagi Yoshiharu says they have developed the new carriage to give people a sense of excitement as they head to the Expo venue.
The new trains come with improved security and comfort. Cameras let the crew see what is happening throughout the train.
And the temperature inside each carriage will be automatically adjusted depending on how crowded it is.
