~Partial Discontinuation of NatsuTV Content~
Thank you for your continued support of NatsuTV.
First of all, we sincerely apologize.
Due to the rules and actions of some railway companies, we have decided to temporarily suspend the posting of all videos, images, and pages owned by NatsuTV on blogs and other materials of some railway companies.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.
Date and Time
- Scheduled to be gradually closed from March 20th onwards
*The restoration date is unknown.
*Content will be registered in the Web Archive.
*Regarding multilingual versions, production has not yet been completed, and the planned production has been cancelled.
Target Companies
- Hankyu Railway
- Nose Railway
*Nose Railway content will be discontinued at the same time as Hankyu Railway, as it shares many similarities with Hankyu Railway and is also a subsidiary.
*Kita-Osaka Kyuko and Kobe Electric Railway content will be decided based on future circumstances, but for the time being, content will continue to be posted.
*Regarding Hankyu Bus, we implemented a mandatory temporary suspension of listings from December 2023, but due to the current situation, we will completely discontinue listings and delete the pages.
Pages to be discontinued
- Hankyu Railway/Nose Railway TOP pages
- Hankyu Railway/Nose Railway Route TOP pages
- Hankyu Railway/Nose Railway Station pages (Boarding/Alighting location information, fares, timetables, platform information, and exit information will also be temporarily suspended as the station pages will be closed)
- How to ride Hankyu Railway
- Hankyu Railway toilet map
- Kosoku-kobe and Shinkaichi Station page (because Hankyu has direct service)
- Transfer map from various companies' stations to Hankyu Railway (and vice versa)
*Regarding the Osaka Metro Sakaisuji Line, listings will continue, but from now on, no Hankyu Railway trains will be photographed, and all train images will be replaced with only Osaka Metro 66 series trains.
*Regarding all pages, transfer information may also be affected depending on the situation.
*Please note that pages regarding how to ride and toilet maps for Nose Railway are not yet available.
Other Services
Currently, we provide explanations of how to get from which station to which station using images on this blog via inquiries. However, to prevent problems, we will temporarily suspend this service and provide explanations using alternative routes.
Also, if you have any problems, please note that we may not be able to answer questions posted on social media using hashtags like #NatsuTVQuestions, or we may provide explanations using a different route. We appreciate your understanding.
Measures and Enhanced Alternative Routes
We will enhance the station explanations for Hanshin Electric Railway, Keihan Electric Railway, JR West, and Kintetsu, which run through similar areas, to improve the explanations of alternative routes.
Hanshin Electric Railway will be posted sequentially, and Keihan Electric Railway will be posted by July 13th. Please check the official website for details.
Finally
This is the first time such measures have been taken in NatsuTV's history.
We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and trouble caused to our viewers.
