Re: Japanese railway back on track.......


What a lovely article!

Coincidentally, one of the quiz questions tonight is about the traditional Japanese cat figure who is a symbol of good luck! The article above won't help you with his name, but in case you want to ask t'internet beforehand ...........

Tama in the article linked by Mags (above) was probably inspired by Maneki Neko - the Japanese symbol of good fortune.


That was a tricksy question in the quiz, wasn't it?
