I'm always reading
conflicting figures for just how many people pass through Shinjuku
Station, but apparently it is the highest number in the country (in the
world?). It's the terminal station for both the Keio Line and the
Odakyu Line, both of which send one standing-room only train after
another out into the suburbs, not to mention that the station is a
transfer point for several other lines, including the very heavily used
Chuo Line, the Saikyo Line and of course the Yamanote (loop)
Line. The multicolored board in the above picture has train
destinations and times.
