Cast

Film Series Overview

Railways stands as a prelude to the subsequent pair of films within this cinematic series:

"Crossroads" (2011)

Known as RAILWAYS 愛を伝えられない大人たちへ (Railways: Ai wo Tsutaerare Nai Otonatachi e) in Japanese and directed by Kurakata Masatoshi, this film focuses on Takishima Toru, a railway driver approaching his mandatory retirement at 59. When his wife Sawako decides to reenter the nursing profession, their relationship faces challenges and transformations.

"Our Departures" (2018)

Directed by Yasuhiro Yoshida, this film follows Akira Okuzono (Kasumi Arimura) as she copes with the loss of her husband. Alongside her stepson Shunya, she relocates to her late husband's hometown and forms an unexpected family connection with her father-in-law, Setsuo (Jun Kunimura). Inspired by Setsuo's career as a railway driver and her late husband's dreams, Akira embarks on a new path by pursuing the same profession.
