Trains socks

Train and Shinkansen (bullet train) gifts and souvenirs are popular in Japan and range from toys, stationery, snacks and clothes.

This small shop was selling a selection of children's ankle socks based on various train models. For example, the green ankle socks (top row second from left) are based on the latest model bullet trains - the E5 series high speed bullet trains pictured below.

New information: The red socks - top row first left - are based on the new bullet trains E6 series that are coloured red and will start operating in 2013.
