Japan Railway Company (JR) Hokkaido, three years ago decided to dismiss their schedule train passing through a station in northern Hokkaido named Kami Shirataki because the area is no longer the center of the crowd and the passing public.
However, JR finally decided to continue to serve this route because they found a high school girl who desperately need train service at the station to reach his school.
JR finally agreed to operate the service train only twice a day, which is when the girl went and when he returned, with a record of train schedules depending on when the girl use the service because they have. Just like a private shuttle.

The true story, it turns out, is just as heartwarming without all the inaccurate embellishments.
As reported by Asahi Shimbun, the station where Kana Harada, high school student boards the train is Kyu-Shirataki Station, not Kami-Shirataki Station as has been widely reported. After reviewing the number of commuters using their services in rural areas, Japan Rail Hokkaido announced their decision to close a number of lesser used stations, including Kami-Shirataki, Kyu-shirataki, and Shimo-shirataki, last year.
There’s only one train heading away from the main city of Asahikawa toward Engaru High School each day, so Kana’s parents make the five-minute drive to the station in time for her to catch the 7:16 a.m. train every morning, where she’s the only regular passenger waiting on the elevated section of land serving as a platform.
When Kana boards the train, there are about 10 other passengers, mostly other students, inside. As an unwritten rule, first and second year students sit in the first car of the train, while third year students ride in the second carriage.
With only three services stopping at Kyu-Shirataki Station in the afternoon, Kana isn’t able to stay back with her friends after club activities at school. Occasionally she has to run to catch the last train home.
Upon hearing about the upcoming closure of services to the station, Kana said she was sad and disappointed to hear it won’t be used anymore. After spending quiet mornings with nothing but the wooden station house for company, we’re sure Kana’s fond memories of her train journeys to school will last her whole lifetime.
