Typhoon No. 21: Electronic bulletin board at JR Osaka Station informing of planned 4-day service suspension.

　In preparation for typhoon No. 21, which is expected to hit the Kii Peninsula from Shikoku around noon on March 4, JR West, Nankai Electric Railway, and Keihan Electric Railway announced on March 3 that they would suspend their train services in advance. Four years ago, JR West became the first company in the Kinki region to implement this measure on a large scale, and there were many complaints, but recently private railway companies have also begun to do so, and it is becoming an established practice in response to typhoons. The new system is now becoming an established practice in response to typhoons. <Text article (page 1) 　Photo: An electronic bulletin board at JR Osaka Station at 6:34 p.m. on March 3 announcing the planned suspension of service on April 4 due to the typhoon.
