ライセンス更新１ー東京
Update a special license -1
My master has some special licenses on account of his work. One of these licenses expires on the end of this March. To keep this license, it is necessary to update every five years, and it is necessary for him to take courses more than 3 for the update. He worries whether he updates it once again, because he is becoming 70 years old in a few years. Some one wishes his remaining as a specialist. So he decides to update it and he has gone to Tokyo for one course and gone to Kyoto for two courses.
After taking the course in Tokyo, he went to Shinjuku Station. Many railroad fans gathered on the platform and took photos of limited express super-Azusa in which my master was just on board. He asked to one of them,” Is this a special train?”. The fan said, ”Yes, gentleman. You will not see this type train soon”. My master saw many people photographing his getting on train from platforms and many places along railway line. He took them from the window of train getting on. My master knew that the super Azusa E351 system “retired” and the new vehicle E353 system “work”, in a newspaper later. My master seems to put himself on “the vehicle of E351 system”.
我猫ジローの主人は仕事の都合で幾つかのライセンスを持っている。今年の3月にそのうちの一つが切れる。このライセンスは5年ごとに更新する必要があり、更新のためには規定数の講習を受ける必要がある。更新するには後3コース受講する必要がある。70歳が手に届くところにきたことからもう一度更新するかどうか迷っていたが、4月からも仕事を続けることになったことから更新することを決心し、東京と京都で催される講習会に出席することにした。
東京での講習会を終え新宿駅に向かった。駅のプラットホームには多くの鉄道ファンが集まり、これから主人が乗車しようとする特急スーパーあずさの写真を撮っていた。主人がそのうちの一人に“これは珍しい車両ですか”と訪ねると、“この車両はもうすぐ見られなくなるから記念撮影をしている。あなたも写真に撮っておくといい。”と言われた。あまり鉄道には興味がない主人だがシャッターを押した。主人が驚いた事に松本に着くまでに、多くの駅、沿線で主人の乗った列車を撮影している人を見たことだ。主人も車窓からそんな人々を写真におさめた。後日主人は主人が乗車した“スーパーあずさE351系”が引退し、“新型車両E353系”になった事を新聞で知った。主人は我が身をE351系車両と重ねてみているようだ。
