Mitsubishi Fuso LKG-MP35FMF Aero Star #札幌200か31-82
7 lutego 2019 - Sapporo (Hokkaidō), Chūō-ku, Kita 1-jō Nishi 3-chōme (北海道札幌市中央区北１条西３丁目). Time to finish off the short series from Sapporo. In saying that, I`m starting to get freaked out seeing just how many photos I`ve accumulated over the past month from across Japan (and beyond). Here`s another key bus operator, Chūō Bus. Their presence around Sapporo is just as noticeable as JR`s.

Hino KC-HU2MMCA Blue Ribbon City #札幌200か32-37
7 lutego 2019 - Sapporo (Hokkaidō), Chūō-ku, Kita 3-jō Nishi 3-chōme (北海道札幌市中央区北３条西３丁目). Sapporo`s buses operate on the usual rear-entry front-exit system. Fares are paid when getting off, and as usual in Japan, the fares are based on distance travelled, although fares close to the city centre don`t go above 210 yen, if not 100 in a certain area. All bus operators accept the usual IC card payments that are accepted nationwide. Thus a tourist who has been in Japan for a few days and knows the story shouldn`t have major issues with fare payment... although getting one`s head wrapped around the bus network itself isn`t easy, but that`s a countrywide problem to begin with.

Sapporo 200 #214
6 lutego 2019 - Sapporo (Hokkaidō), Chūō-ku, Minami 22-jō Nishi 14-chōme, near the tram depot (北海道札幌市中央区南２２条西１４丁目), Prefectural Route 453. For purely documentational purposes here`s a Sapporo tram. The tram network is a loop (which has been completed since the photos previously uploaded here). Thus fundamentally the tram functions as an 内回り uchi-mawari "inner loop" and 外回り soto-mawari "outer loop" - counter-clockwise and clockwise respectively. For scheduling and legal purposes, the terminus is Susukino in the city centre. Much like is the case on buses, passengers also board trams at the rear, get off at the front and pay when alighting, however a flat fare is in place. Most of the fleet is high-floor, from the 50s up until the 80s, however when I took this photo two diagrams were operated by low-floor stock (one on each loop). In Sapporo`s case this means short articulated three-piece cars. Unfortunately, they`re a lot less roomy inside...

Mitsubishi Fuso KC-MP717P Aero Star #534-8814
6 lutego 2019 - Sapporo (Hokkaidō), Chūō-ku, Ōdori nishi-9-chōme (北海道札幌市中央区大通西９丁目). I went to Sapporo for three nights. The main purpose was the 70th edition of the Snow Festival and in general just sightseeing... any photos are more or less accidental, when I was bothered enough to grab my camera from under my coat. The temperature, as you might assume, didn`t rise above -1°C at any time. There was an international presence at the Snow Festival too - a number of teams (incl. a Polish one), as well as the US Navy.

6 lutego 2019 - Sapporo (Hokkaidō), Chūō-ku, Miyanomori 2-jō 16-chōme, near Ōkurayama kyōgijō iriguchi bus stop (北海道札幌市中央区宮の森２条１６丁目). For those interested in seeing the Sapporo Olympic Museum, or perhaps the Ōkurayama ski jump, I recommend the 円14 (maru-14) bus departing from 円山公園 Maruyamakōen metro station. For I believe 210 yen the bus takes a short while to reach the stop around where the photo was taken, from where all that`s left is another 10-15 minute climb to the ski jump itself. What`s slightly amusing is the route`s timetable: in the inter-peak it runs every 20-40 minutes, and there`s no point in looking for something else it might be coordinated with, because there just isn`t anything.

Nissan Diesel ADG-RA273MAN / NSK 96MC B-I #札幌200か46-68
7 lutego 2019 - Sapporo (Hokkaidō), Minami-ku, Kawazoe 5-jō 1-chōme, exit from Kawazoe office of Jōtetsu (北海道札幌市南区川沿５条１丁目). The next major bus company around Sapporo is Jōtetsu, who mostly operate routes towards the south of the city, including rapid services to some popular onsen. I was taken completely by surprise by the unexpected presence of their bus garage pretty much across the street from my hotel, but a quick look around the grounds and I instantly knew that there`s no chance for any photos from the garage without looking overly suspicious...
Isuzu KL-LV280Q1 Erga One-Step #札幌200か15-04
7 lutego 2019 - Sapporo (Hokkaidō), Chūō-ku, Kita 1-jō Nishi 3-chōme (北海道札幌市中央区北１条西３丁目). I`m not sure why, but walking around central Sapporo I felt as if I was walking around Manhattan... not that I had ever been to the latter.
