I take the tobu-tojo to Ikebukuro between 7-8 AM, lining up for a local so that I can sit and use the time for something constructive and to avoid early-morning sardine imitations. With the fabulous fukutoshin now in operation the number of locals starting at Shiki has been cut by 2/3. so the lines for the Ikebukuro -bound local trains get real long real quick. Also, throughout the day there are fewer semi expresses running. I wish they had never dreamt this one up, or at the very least, started the trains from Wakoshi. I also live in Shiki.
