Tokyo Metro Eki Stamps
I was disheartened when I found out that Tokyo Metro didn’t have ink eki stamps (they do have digital though). I’ve taken the Tokyo Metro all of my trips and would have loved to have some stamps in my eki stamp collection.
Many other railways have put stamps away, but sometimes, when there is a special occasion, a stamp rally is held! I was FORTUNATE to be in Japan when the Tozai line was having a stamp rally and I was able to get a few stamps. It was to celebrate the 55th year of opening of Tozai
Tozai Line stamp rally (limited time)
Tozai line
Ikebukuro station had a stamp rally to celebrate 120yrs (I believe). The stamps were of the 4 railway companies that are in Ikebukuro station –
JR East, Seibu Railway, Tobu Railway, Tokyo Metro
Here is the Tokyo Metro stamp
Someone on the facebook eki stamp page told me that they had stamps for Tokyo Metro at their museum, so I had to get them.
The stamps are located throughout the museum. You have to pick up the stamp book at the gift shop for 200 yen.
