I love night

>>16552062
Thanks OP

Still waiting for another moot sighting

So what happens when the snow goes? How does the station remain interesting?

>>16566529
I think during the spring or summer they have special occasions with the old black train (if I'm not mistaken)

yeah, too bad not having trees here

>>16567349
Where is that? Its absolutely beautiful.

>>16564539
You mean Hiroyuki now?

>>16567061
>>16566529
Its also comfy to watch the rain, clouds, fog, sunrise and sunset, and listen to the Japanese crickets during summer. Its a slice of life webcam.

>>16567349
That has to be one of the comfiest stations I have seen.

IMPORTANT INFO REGARDING POSSIBLY THIS STREAM:

The stream seems to be down for me so I went to the official site and saw the notice

"[ Important ] Notice of content end "from the window of Fukushima"

Can anyone with more knowledge of the language and situation tell us what is being discontinued?

I'm assuming the worst here

>termination

RIP

F

trainfags on suicide watch

...

>>16579952
Yeah, from 31st of March they are stopping a lot of streams.

>>16580389
permanently?
Unless it's maintenance/problems the one specific to this thread seems to already be gone

Rumors are that they're upgrading to 4K with the possibility to move the camera around since it'll be mounted on a drone so you can look under the skirts of the girls too if you like Who the hell am I kidding?

>>16580402
Permanently.
Maybe 31st March is when the final ones will be taken offline.

>>16580686
I see. Thank you for the information.

I'm going to start the commemoratory thread and dump what I have collected over time

I know it sounds naive but... Couldn't we try to write a letter explaining and maybe ask for them to keep the stream, or at least consider it?

>>16580904
They might respond, I don't know if they'd actually keep it up for us though.

>>16580958
I'm surprised they would pull it considering they're trying hard to market the country for the Olympics at this point

http://dat.2chan.net/r/res/701594.htm

I think the OP of this thread said the cam is ending.


There's a few older pictures in there.

>>16581005
there's also an official announcement on the site

Been following the stream for 4-5 years I think. It's sad to see it go

What a shame. I'm going to miss this station. I know it's not the same but maybe we could turn this into a Japanese Railways general?

stream is back up

>>16581806
forgot to post a screencap

The site does have like 18 cameras and a lot of them are very low quality, they might be thinking about getting rid of those older cameras.

Well anyway looks like most if not all of the cameras are back up at least for now. We probably have another month.

>>16580904
>Couldn't we try to write a letter explaining and maybe ask for them to keep the stream, or at least consider it?
Why do you think they would? It's not like they're taking down just stream. They're taking down like 19 streams that have been running for the last 14 years.

WE NEED MORE SNOW!!!!!!

>>16583165
>Why do you think they would? It's not like they're taking down just stream. They're taking down like 19 streams that have been running for the last 14 years.
I dunno, just thought it could be worth a try. How expensive can it be to keep those up? Unless they are cutting ties with the provider or something like that.

Is it really going down, /jp/? If it's true then I'll be really upset. I've never owned a pet but it feels like my dog just died. I've had these threads open in a tab for something like two years now and it's been a constant source of comfy sights and sounds. I rarely posted, but checking out the great pictures and webms you guys post has been the most relaxing part of my daily routine.

When you think about it, isn't the whole idea of this little community built around watching this humble train station such an amazing and unique thing? It's something that's only possible in this time period right now and in this place where the internet and old railway technology intersects. Beautiful.

I just don't want it to end so soon.

fuck

Another beautiful morning.

How do you guys record the stream? I think that they'll really end all the streams of Fukushima no Mado Kara next month, so I wanted to make a video of these next few weeks of the train station and put it up somewhere as a memento just like the timelapses, but I can't find the proper software to do so.

>>16594756
ffmpeg -i mmsh://center3.ntt-fukushima.com/n-jraizu -c:v copy -c:a copy "jraizu.mkv"

Will record the stream as one continuous segment.


I record in 30 minute segments to make them easier to use and manage. 30 minutes is approximately 170MB so its just under the bar for most file locker sites.

@echo off
:loop
SET /A i = i + 1
ffmpeg -i mmsh://center3.ntt-fukushima.com/n-jraizu -c:v copy -c:a copy -t 1800 "jraizu-%i%.mkv"
TIMEOUT /T 2
goto :loop

There are the %date% and %time% variables that allows you to append the date and time to files but the variables behave differently depending on the user's setup. By default windows time isn't valid for filenames.

>>16595424
Oh sorry

>@echo off
>:loop
>SET /A i = i + 1
>ffmpeg -i mmsh://center3.ntt-fukushima.com/n-jraizu -c:v copy -c:a copy -t 1800 "jraizu-%i%.mkv"
>TIMEOUT /T 2
>goto :loop

That's a windows batch file. Save it as <anything>.bat and run it.

I've been thinking, maybe the reason they're getting rid of the streams is that they rely on the silverlight plugin to work. Since silverlight is only supported in IE and Firefox now, it's becoming increasingly difficult to view them the "official" way. So maybe they figured the streams aren't worth keeping up if no one can view them? Is that likely?

>>16595424
>>16595445
Thank you. I'll be trying this and see how it goes.

>>16596805
I'm not sure if that's the case, but if it's anything financially related, then I imagine they could trash the other various cameras that I feel are not so much watched and keep the train station feed going. I can only imagine the possible costs of their continuous live feed of cameras in the mountains and castles that are part of the Fukushima live streaming cameras.

>>16598510
>financially related

they can add a donation button

>>16598510
>I can only imagine the possible costs of their continuous live feed of cameras in the mountains and castles that are part of the Fukushima live streaming cameras.
a cheap link, set it and forget it cam, and a server?
Costs must be in the billions!

comfy snow

When / if this ends (I'm still in denial), can we have a similar thread for streaming webcams in general?

There is a few in the pastebin (gosh it was only recently created) but my favorites are:

>Shibuya scramble crossing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9pavMzUY-c

Hokkaido 4x webcams
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ii_JukUbJG0

I used to watch this one but they added a second camera and now it alternates between the two constantly and it's annoying.

Made a Countdown Timer ;_;

>>16617837
We can make a nice thread in memory of the stream if it does go down. I'll dump everything I collected over the years

I hope the decision is not final or can be reversed though

>>16617866
Or its an early April Fools. But yeah good idea.

>>16617837
What? Is it getting shut down?

>>16640568

Start reading from >>16579952

I love mornings like this.

Can we contact them perhaps?
If they're closing all the webcams.... Perhaps they could consider only leaving aizu but instead of having it run 24/24h, perhaps they could sync the start of street when the stations opens and the end when the station closes?

Fuck, it's really sad if they are gonna end it. I've been following this train station for a least 8 or 7 years and such has happened since then

I will really miss this place, no matter what happened to Fukushima the residents still live and use their train transportation to nearby areas. The leaving and coming back of those trains everyday, the weather conditions through all the year, people waving to the camera... man, it's gonna be all gone but the memories will be ever saved on pictures and videos.

>>16648029
chances are their cost for running is flat rate so it doesn't really matter if the stream is up 12 or 24 hours a day once the infrastructure has been set up and paid for

I do agree with contacting them though. Maybe if they see that the stream has had such a loyal following...

https://youtu.be/CgHyfc8qn9U?list=PL5F_fv0HQW6pyk3Zdu0WsCbJxafABW--a&t=43

Have they fixed the rush hour overcrowding problem at this point? I suppose the only way you can do it is to have a constant stream of trains during peak times

Start a petition to save this live stream!!!!!

the snow is slowly melting away

SAYONARA

>>16660103
God damn it, why? ;_;

rare train

>>16660103
Interesting how they use Heisei 平成 as the year.

Is this a new model?
I saw quite a few people taking pictures of it.

>>16666252
I think its new but it most certainly is a rare train if people are snapping photos of it.

foggy morning

how would you go about waching the stream on your smartphone?

>>16671063
I've tried to get android VLC to work but it doesn't seem to, not sure if it can. I don't know if there's a better media player for out there on android either.

>>16671121
Gave vlc a shot as well, didn't work. I also tried mx player but it gave me the same error sadly. I then tried searching for a silverlight plugin for firefox browser but no luck there, and unfortunately there are no addons for chrome browser on android. Guess I'll stick to desktop for now

>>16671145
If you really needed it, you could maybe have the stream open on your desktop then teamviewer in from your phone.

>>16670885
Why is fog so romantic?

>>16671063
It works with 321 player on android if you use the non silverlight link

So did they realize it is stupid to stop the camera by now? Or is all of Fukoshima just melting by now?

Snowing again.

>>16679368
Last hurrah?

Thanks for the post.

>>16679395
>Last hurrah?
Let's hope not.

So is anyone sending an email or what?

>>16683557
Full house.

>>16683261
Second the motion.

>>16567349
gorgeous

>>16679368
noice

What webcams are we watching after this gets shut down?

>>16693265

I propose to look at the 1800 jap surveillance cameras to spot burglars, shoplifters, car accidents, yakuza raids and the occasional qt washing her clothes at the coin laundry:

http://insecam.org/en/bycountry/JP/

Never forget

>>16693932
Are you serious anon?

Why'd they shut it down? Is it cause of the guy who suicided on the stream the other day?

>>16697263
Most speculation seems to be cost related?

>>16695194
Thanks anon. Will not forget.

What date (and time) was that again?

http://www.ntt-east.co.jp/fukushima/mado/index.html

What exactly does the message say? Also the cameras have been around for 15 years 4 months?

The E721 series has been getting a lot more use lately

I'm assuming it must have been perma deployed on this line now

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E721_series


Does anyone with more knowledge know which line(s) we are watching in the stream? Is it all the tadami line?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tadami_Line

>>16700091
The Tadami Line uses the platforms to the left of the screen, which we can't see.
What the stream shows is the two platforms of the Ban-etsu west line.
It's a reverse station for that line. The Western part of the line from Niitsu stops on the left platform, while the eastern part of the line for Koriyama stops on the right platform. (all of which forms the ban-etsu west line)

>>16700339

The Tadami line looks stunning.

Is that bridge still open do you know? I understand some of the bridges were closed a few years ago.

>>16700367
I have no idea if it's still open. That bridge is between Aizuhinohara and Aizunishikata stations.

Are there any other train stations to watch? The ip cameras in offices from that other anon looky really creepy..

>>16701861
ustream and youtube are the only places I know of where you can easily find new streams but I don't know if we'll have a way to record the stream like we currently do

>>16700339
Makes sense. Thank you for clarifying

Why are on ustream so many christian streams?

Couple of other streams I stumbled upon.

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/%E4%B9%85%E6%85%88%E5%B8%82%E5%86%85

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/kasamatsu-eki

>>16701999
Any way to view ustream without flashplayer? like in mpv, mpc, ffmpeg etc

>>16702015
Livestreamer can pipe the stream to something else
http://docs.livestreamer.io/

Not actually sure if it works with ffmpeg but it seems possible.

What are some good keywords to look for on youtube and ustream?

I've tried:
鉄道 - railway
電車駅　- train station

Those seem to work but I wonder if there's something better.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-OtLnknOpQ

>>16702015
>>16702041
livestreamer isn't actively maintained anymore and a lot of site plugins have stopped working.

Use streamlink instead, it's the currently maintained fork of livestreamer (same functionality):
https://streamlink.github.io/

>>16701985
Sunday?

>>16702058
Kinda difficult to catch train stations by keyword. Try ライブカメラ and look through results manually.

>>16702058
https://www.youtube.com/results?search_sort=video_date_uploaded&search_query=%E3%83%A9%E3%82%A4%E3%83%96%E3%82%AB%E3%83%A1%E3%83%A9&lclk=live&filters=live

>>16702092
>>16702015
So after messing with streamlink for a while I figured out how to copy ustream streams with ffmpeg.

(In windows)
streamlink --stream-url <entire stream url> best
Will reveal the link to the playlist for the stream.

Then you can feed that url to ffmpeg

ffmpeg -i "<stream_url.m3u8?whatever&whatever&etc&group=iphone>" -c copy output.m3u8

It will copy the streams and make a playlist for them so they can be played or combined into one file.

>>16702346
trying to play the second link in >>16701999 gives me an access denied in ffpmeg. Any ideas?

>>16702459
Did you get the entire link including all the garbage at the end past the file extension(.m3u3) ?

>>16702479
yeah:

>>16702479
sorry .m3u8*

>>16702487
>>16702479
>>16702459
Huh now it's doing that for me too. Not sure what changed all of a sudden.

>>16702498
It stopped working but then I did the streamlink thing again and copied the url in and it worked again.

Seems to be a bit unstable.

>>16704431
Wow. Snow is almost gone. God I am gonna miss this station.

The lights look really great on the kanazawa station

>>16701824

Thanks, looks like it is still open. The line between Aizukawaguchi and Aizugamo is closed as far as I'm aware.

I really hope we get to watch the snow come out this year again. I don't want them to end this stream.

>>16705557
I love how you get Shinkansen and regular DMU/EMU services in one place. Hate all the catenary blocking the view though.

>>16706499
Hope so too. But I doubt it. Its the middle of March. We are closer to Sakura season than snow season.

>>16709737
Yeah unlike this station its not "intimate".

At the moment I am looking at several streams and I'm suprised that the Shibuya crossing has 160 viewers. The Kanazawa station still going strong with 16

>>16710459
It looks like the video is pretty poor quality?

>>16712054
It's 720p but doesn't get any sharper sadly

>>16712296

>>16712591

We won't be able to see these things anymore after this month ;_;

What streams are you guys switchting over to?

>>16720730
I haven't really found a good replacement. None of the other cams I've seen let you see the platforms.

Even googling for other train cams in Japanese just gives a ton of shitty MJPEG/java webcams with no view of the stations themselves.

>>16702346
You can actually combine all of the segments into one file if you just pass it a regular file container at the end rather than a playlist like so

ffmpeg -i "<stream_url.m3u8?whatever&whatever&etc&group=iphone>" -c copy -bsf:a aac_adtstoasc output.mp4


It's actually not too different from the Aizu stream after all

ご苦労さん、カメラ君。

I'll dump som of the pictures I took when I visited Aizuwakamatsu in 2012.

I posted these in an /a/ thread yesterday as well as on a few other occasions since then.

This is track 3, on the other side of the left platform from the stream camera.

>>16731631
*since 2012 that is.

The main entrance to the station is quite nice.

Close up of train-kun.

IIRC these tracks continue on trough Aizu and takes you all the way to the Akita-prefecture and the Sea of Japan.

>>16731674
I mean Niigata-prefecture of course.

>>16731688
It was a weekend in the beginning of September, and I know the stream is dying, kind of I decided to post them. But yeah,mostly visited random /a/ threads.

>>16722611
I believe they have been around at least since 2011.

>>16731717
Well, I seam to have misread your post a little, but yeah. posting because the stream is dead.

Here's a drivewheel of C57 class steam train, it's the type that you sometimes could see on the stream.

>>16731688
Oh, and I found the /a/ thread, it died pretty quickly.

I'm glad to see that these threads are still up. I remember being one of the few people that would reply to Aizuwakamatsu threads some years ago and imagined they would be gone at some point if any of the anons that replied to it left. I left 4chan until recently and thought this would be gone, but I'm happy to see that there were still people watching the train station.

>>16736687
Sometimes. For example:

I like the mood of this one (rain at dusk, through Japanese suburb), but usually I listen while doing something else more than I watch.

How to crack those camera passwords, anyone?

I'm going to make some timelapses of the this train station.

I did a timelapse. A pity that it had to be so compressed in order to fit 4chan's maximum size for webms.

>>16744022
you could've done a longer one with reduced resolution (stream is not in 16:9, it's not in 720p either, 640x480)
Also limit is 3MB

>>16744042
Yeah, I noticed a lot of problems with this one. I'll try to fix the resolution next time.

>>16744042
>>16744072
Didn't have to delete it ;_;

Didn't get to see it ;_;

>>16744671
It was bad in my opinion, so I decided to delete it. I probably got how to properly convert it and speed it up now, but I think I'll just be uploading them to Youtube or some other video site and linking here so that I don't have to lose a lot of quality in the process.

I will miss the stream

>>16747705
How poetic. In addition to this stream being missed I will also miss these kind of posts.

I've finally got this to work properly. I also have 8 hours of recorded footage from today, so maybe I'll do something with that later.

It started snowing lightly!

Looks like sleet from how wet the tracks and platform are

>>16750775
I said that now suddenly it's dropping like mad

>>16750803
Just checked and its stopped it seems ;_;


>>16749209
Thank you based anon.

>>16750862
That's spring snowfall for you.
The climate here is strikingly like where I live in the rockies, where you'll have picnic weather for a whole week then Sunday comes and you wake up to a blizzard only for every trace of it to be gone by the afternoon.

Did they just turn the lights out on that poor guy on the track? Rude.

>>16697399

That should be on June 18th, 2016 when JR East's Sendai Branch hosted the Last Run event for its remaining 485 train set

http://www.jr-sendai.com/upload-images/2016/04/485_rasutoran.pdf

There is a really pretty snowfall right now in the station.

The snowfall right now.

Surprising that it's still snowing now.

Wet camera :^)

The snow is so ephemeral ;_;

Thanks for capturing it.

>>16754010

Nice to see the snow coming back for one last hurrah, like it's trying to say hi to us.

The anticipation and the excitement surrounding the snowy season has always been one of the best parts of the stream.

its snowing very lightly right now

Pretty.

Just kinda sad that the cram school and noodle restaurant ones aren't working anymore, and that Aizu Wakamatsu will soon end up joining the most of those links as not working anymore.

On a Sunday?

The station is really pretty right now!

>>16767803
Is there a way to crack those password required cams?

>>16774391
If they're implemented even semi competently, no.

If you have hours to waste, your best bet is to note the version of the software they're using and see if there are any public exploits.

Are you guys SURE it's a gone forever kind of thing? I don't get that vibe from the message.

>>16774502
Well how else do you interpret it?

>>16774502
Pretty much sure. The formality of it doesn't really make it seem like a message announcing anything like just a maintenance or something like it. The clearly announce they're ending their services. I still wonder why they would do that though.

Friday is it I think.

>>16773043
Can't believe I missed this.

Thank you for sharing.

Anymore?

>>16775481

>>16617837

Is there a station stream that is an acceptable replacement?

I have about three hours from that point onward. I will encode and speed it up into 15 minutes and upload it.

see >>16617837

I'll be recording the last two days of the stream non stop in case someone can't get some of the footage due to timezone not making it easy to watch the last minutes of the stream. Don't count on me, but I'll do what I can to catch those last moments. I also hope they'll do something in front of the camera just as a way to celebrate or acknowledge the viewers that kept up with them along the years.

>>16778891
That's so nice of you!

Can you read, anon?
>Here's a random list I saved back in 2010

I probably won't have the time to watch the last few days of the stream so thank you for this.

Here's one I quite like, for those that don't know about it

>>16780841
This one is a very very good find. Thank you!

>>16780841
This one is great. Good view of the trains and the scenery in the distance along with the sounds of the birds/animals and the occasional car, so relaxing.

Does the camera amplify sound, making the PA seem louder than it is? I'm wondering how they are allowed to blare at such volume so early in the morning and late at night. It's 6am in Japan now and they have been loudly making announcements for the past half hour. If that happened where I live, there would be an awful lot of residents complaining.

>>16782720
6am is a normal time to wake up in Japan.

what if it's just an elaborate April Fools' Day prank?

>>16782720
Between doing construction work in the night (starting at frigging 10pm) in Tokyo and blaring pointless announcements over the PA system at any hour of the day in smaller towns, the authorities in Japan give exactly zero fucks about their noise pollution.

About two hours from yesterday night.

This is how we look like over there.

Cozy box.

Light and clouds were all over the place this morning.

>>16780841
This is a nice stream. I don't know if anyone was watching but earlier there was a guy down by the tracks he walked around picking a few things up.

Maybe picking up trash?

What music is everyone listening to whilst watching g the last of this stream? I'm listening to Yui - Goodbye Days. It's just so fitting.

>>16780841
Is there some way to get a link for that link but similar to the non-Silverlight link that we have for Aizu so that that stream could be opened in VLC and recorded? I tried to enter the Youtube address but VLC wasn't able to receive the live feed.

>>16784853
You can use streamlink to pipe the stream to VLC, however the VLC 2.x (current stable) branch has trouble processing youtube streams correctly.

Use streamlink + VLC 3.0 beta nightly build or mplayer or any other players that work.

I've noticed more people taking photos of the camera the past few days. Seems even the Japs are sad the stream is going.

>>16780841
It's nice, but it's a bit too slow for me.

>>16552062
>I've noticed more people taking photos of the camera the past few days. Seems even the Japs are sad the stream is going.

Wow. Didn't notice this. Did you or any other kind anon get screenshots of this?

>>16785250
I sadly don't. It was mainly during the weekend, though I saw a few more people snapping with their phones during the weekday evening time as well. Maybe you can catch a few of them tomorrow evening.

>>16780841
Thank you, anon.

Is the dream almost over? I don't want it to end.

>>16784853
You can record the stream with youtube-dl but I don't know how to make segments

youtube-dl --no-part https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sswP80jHi4M

The actual stream link has your IP address and a number of unique identifiers attached to it so you shouldn't share it directly.

Hours from today.

>>16784885
Tried with the current version of Streamlink but it didn't work, will perhaps try with older versions.

>>16787898
I wish to live in Aizu soo much! please help me out! how do you become successful with my 中途半端 style JPでも、助けておねがいたします！

just under 24 hours to go...

It's a beautiful and calm evening as usual.

What has this stream taught you about Japan /jp/?

Anyone else hear unusual sounds? Like someone walking up a creaky ladder and fiddling with a screwdriver on a plastic box? Or am I imagining things?

>>16789028
That Fukushima is not a radioactive wasteland. But that's about it.

>>16789028
That I want to go visit.

;_;7

>>16789144
Yeah, Aizuwakamatsu is way away from The Zone, like 150km with 2000ft of elevation in between, yet I clearly remember during the tsunami 6 years ago the stream went down for a couple of weeks.

>>16789613

>6 years ago
Damn, doesn't seem like that long ago.

>>16789632

Still can't believe the stream is going down, it's been around for what feels like forever.

Its the new latest JR East luxury cruise train that they have been trialing and set to come into full service in May this year! Which means another thing we are gonna miss!

What the fuck only 13 hours

>>16790492
Well if I understood >>16660103 correctly, it ends at 17:00 local time, so yes.

5am. 12 hours to go, station is awake and already trains rolling in.

>>16789028
For me, a whole bunch of things:
Many stereotypes are true, Japanese are (generally) very orderly and tidy people, not a spot of litter, chewing gum or weed to be seen and I've saw no pushing and shoving in crowds.
The railwaymen do their job and act in a (mostly) professional way, often neatly dressed, politely bowing and getting on with their job.
Girls really do wear yukatas!
School children really do have long days, I often see them boarding trains or arriving at 6am!
Speaking of which, Japan does seem as safe as they say it is, no way would a single high-school girl be wandering by herself at 10pm where I live.
Japan is the land of the otaku, I've seen so many people take photos of the trains over the years, not just the special event trains like the steam train, but the humble commuter trains are popular as well. And while I haven't seen any cosplay characters walking down the platform, there have been a few mascots and characters on the trains.
Japan does not throw good stuff out. Ancient rust-buckets that people would complain about or outright avoid here are well used and even an attraction (see above). It seems Japan takes the "If it ain't broke" philosophy to heart.

A few things don't seem to be all that true, not from what I've seen in Aizu at least:
All Japanese salarymen working to 11pm is not entirely true. Yes, there are always many people, including school-children, who come in to the station late (10pm-ish) and I even see at least a dozen on the midnight train, but for the most part the biggest crowds, salarymen among them, seem to be between 4 and 6pm.
The Japanese people are not as publicly reserved as some would have you believe. I've often seen and heard naughty schoolboys mucking around, giggly schoolgirls and housewives gossiping loudly and excitedly, children and salarymen alike lively talking and laughing, especially during the weekends. But they are never raucous or crude, I've never seen rude people like bad drunks or people tossing cans onto the line, something that's a common sight at my local train and station.

Plus, there seems to be a button in a box at the side of the platform that conductors can push to play the departing music. I thought that was cool, I would be sooo tempted to Ding-Dong Dash.

>>16790783
>there seems to be a button in a box at the side of the platform that conductors can push to play the departing music
In case somebody is curious, here is the departure melody, whose name is AIZUその名の情熱, or The Passion of that Name, Aizu.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-RPm3u_k80
And here's a place to download the sheet music of it.
http://artificium.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-71.html

Here is a collection of departure melodies from other stations. It makes me curious to think of all the other stations that go by everyday with their everyday ordinary events which we'll never see.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqEW-ASCMeM

Fucking hell, I won't get back to Japan until next week. I wanted to visit the camera and pay my respects.

>>16790783
I am studying abroad in Kawasakishi and I have to commute from Musahsi Kosugi eki into Shibuya each day. It's an entirely different vibe than riding the train to New York; people are just minding their own business, and the trains are new and clean. In New York there's a hostile atmosphere and everything feels very grimy because there's no incentive to keep things clean. Even though my Japanese is not very good - hence why I am studying here - I was able to figure things out in time to catch the trains because everything is straightforward.
The morning rush gets pretty packed, the most I have ever seen on a train, but even then I don't feel too constricted because everyone at least makes some small effort to make way for one another, and gives up seats for elderly people or women. Yesterday I also saw my first geisha, which was neat but I try not to stare at people.
Getting back was much less crowded, and the loudest the train got was a young couple talking to one another. Travel is pretty cheap, too; it takes 400 yen for me to travel there and back. Whereas it can take upwards of 70 dollars for me to ride a slow train into the city back home.
I am very impressed, and amused by the fanfare around the train system. The screens on the JR shinkansen that I took from the airport were advertising a train related romantic drama on their train TV channel.

I'm going to miss this tune.

Been looking through the other webcams for the first time in years. I've forgot how interesting the other webcams can be, even if most are randomly/weirdly placed. Just saw a cute girl try and stop her dog from jumping all over some random guy. I thought those cliches only happened in jdramas?!

It would be nice, if we do continue these threads, to make them a sort of "window on Japan" webcam thread. I regret not spending more time on the other cams now. It would have been interesting to see the castle or the parks filled with people during the weekends and national holidays.

>>16790783
This is what I mean by the ancient locomotives being an attraction, 3 people taking photos of the train in this image alone.

>>16792619
Rarther fond of them as well.

Final hour.

Compare the station now to near nine years ago, barely anything has changed.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HqjvYcaa7Hc

Yet another example of "if it ain't broke" philosophy. If you keep things orderly and clean, you do not need to waste money on clean-ups and makeovers every five years.

>>16792481
Yeah I have the same regrets as well. It really was taking these things for granted for so long. Just don't appreciate these things until they are gone ;_; 100% agree on the continuation of these threads with other webcams. I detailed some earlier in the thread. Will repost later cause I'm on my phone and work blocks 4chan for some lame reason.

Final hour. So saddening but thank you all making our threads so comfy and a great place to hang out.

>>16792619
>>16792783
I do feel a bit sorry for it though. If I read wikipedia correctly, that is the Aizu line train and they still haven't fixed the line from the landslide 6 years ago.

---

loled at the little granny that did a little granny-run up the left platform only to realise she ran to the wrong train and tottered back round to the right platform.

Was that our last departure on platform one. Oh this is really getting sad. we must keep our heads up Anons.

>>16792889
Likely is our last departure. But we may see an arrival or two still.

>>16792897
I hope we do it would be nice. Although it would be rather poetic for it to end just as unceremoniously as how i 1st found it.

>>16792897

Last train coming in. Anyone know what train this is, where it came from, where it's going next?

>>16792889

Hold me ;_;

Surely it will be gone for a day, but then it will suddenly be back on with a new 1080p camera or something. Right, guys?

this is it lads

Great timing.

It is after 17 and it is still on! A Japanese train not being on time? Surely that can't be true! We were all rused!

It's a goodbye from them...

A kid almost fell over in the overtime.

Isn't every moment is so precious.

It is over.
It is down
;_;7

Browsing on twittet and this is so meta

Press F to pay respects

Thank you for the years of service JR Aizu. Here's hoping we'll meet again one day.

This picture is the very last moment of the stream..

That's it folks...........

Aww its really gone :(

Well, there it is. It's over after so many years. I'm glad this thread was kept alive for all this time. Thanks, guys.

Oh there's still snow at Mt Aizu Komagatake

Well that's it, meta twitter guy broke reality with his inception. Fitting the final shot is the departure of a train that been servicing the station since the beginning of the stream.

Thank you

Feeling so depressed now

Hey, guys, it is not starting for some reason? Any idea why? Do I have to install something?

;_;

It was nice we heard the departing jingle just before the stream stopped. Quite poetic.

WHAT'S THE NEW WEBCAM GONNA BE FOR OUR NEXT THREAD?

They said they would end the stream, and they actually did it. The absolute madmen. I miss it already.

Seven years of watching the stream and it ends just like that. I'll miss it. ;_;

Remember to archive this thread.
お疲れ様 Aizu-Wakamatsu Station Camera-san !!!

Where does the time go? And I still haven't been there ;_;

Everyone is posting their screenshots. We need some where where we can all dump our screenshots together.

I recorded the last 2 hours or so. Hearing the jingle one last time made me sad.

>>16792981
Apparently there's snow in the forecast for Shibuya tomorrow.

>>16793012
Wow. Thanks for the heads up. Will watch the Shiba scramble crossing YouTube stream then.

I wonder what made them stop the stream? If it is server cost, surely setting up an account on YT like >>16780841 would save money?

>Hearing the jingle one last time made me sad.
I'm beginning to think that was deliberate on NTT's part, they are bound to know that the Aizu stream is the most popular and deliberately overran their specified end time in order to end the stream on a poetic note.

These last 21 hours of stream amount to 7GB of video. Do you guys want this downloadable somewhere? I could upload this and the other 28GB from the last few days, but I have no idea where to do it.

>>16793016
Fuck I didn't hear the end jingle I don't think. When was it exactly?

>>16793016
I really doubt that. They already have the camera, so all else they need is internet. Even having their own server doesn't add much to that.

>>16793019
7gb holy

They let every account have 50GBs and you can make as many accounts using something such as http://10minutemail.com/
