Stationmaster cat gets summer bonus

July 21st, 2008 by James

The Wakayama Electric Railway has given a special summer bonus to Tama, a cat that serves as stationmaster of Kishi Station on the Kishigawa Line. The bonus consists of a cooling pad and a custom-made mesh hat to replace the heaver stationmaster hat Tama usually wears.

For more pictures and video of Tama, check out our April 2008 post about him!
