Comments on: Eizan Train Line’s “Fall-Foliage Tunnel” Lightup http://regex.info/blog/2008-11-19/1004 Not a photo blog. A personal blog with photos.

After reading your blog on Eizan autumn lightup, I'm itching to go Kurama too :) Plan to visit Kyoto from 17th-21st Nov. Do you think the light up will be there during my visit? By chance, do you know if I can use my Kansai Thru Pass on the Kirara train or only regular train on the Kurama line? I'm thrilled with your pics of the flowing noodles. Pls help me with the directions to the place. Thank you for lovely blog on your travel..it's really wonderful! Cheers, June <span class='jfriedl'>The "momiji tunnel" runs from <a href='http://www.keihannet.ne.jp/eiden/ensen/gaido/aki/gaido200.htm' class='quiet' rel="nofollow">Nov 13 through Nov 29</a>, so you'll be fine. There are no special tickets for these trains... they're like any other commuter train except they slow down and sometimes stop for a bit where it's really pretty, so anything that gets you onto the train line will be good for these trains. You'll want to take up position in the front/rear (or wherever you want) right away, and hold onto it for dear life, because once it gets pretty, people who have been relaxing in chairs will suddenly like the idea of occupying the half inch of space between you and the window. As for the noodles, the map links are under each picture, but I'm sure they're through for the season already. —Jeffrey</span> Hello Jeffrey,
