QUOTE Women-only commuter rail cars in service JAPAN -- The first women-only carriage on a morning commuter train in Tokyo went into service Monday as part of efforts to cut the incidence of sexual harassment. Japan East Railway Co. introduced trains with the women-only cars on the JR Saikyo Line, known as a route with a high incidence of groping during the morning rush hours. Ten private railways and subways in the Tokyo metropolitan area will follow suit on May 9. On the windows of the carriage were pink stickers that read "For women only." -- The Yomiuri Shimbun credits: star-telegram |
