JR East and Chichibu Railway Host ‘Cool’ Railroad Stamp Rally in Commemoration of the New 10,000 Yen Note Issuance

JR East and Chichibu Railway will be holding a ‘cool’ railway stamp rally from July 20 to August 31.

The event is to commemorate the issuance of the new 10,000 yen note, and features locations related to Eiichi Shibusawa. Stamp installation locations include Tokyo Station operated by JR East and five stations in Saitama Prefecture, along with four stations operated by Chichibu Railway, making a total of ten stations. Stations will have stamp rally cards available either inside or outside the ticket gates. The stamp designs are inspired by ‘cool’ vehicles and characters that have made their mark either in the past or present.

Prizes will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, with the first 500 participants who collect stamps from three stations winning an original clear file, the first 300 participants who collect stamps from five stations winning an original acrylic key holder, and the first 200 participants who complete stamps from all ten stations winning an original pass case. The three-station prize can be exchanged at JR Honjo Station’s ticket gate, and the five-station and ten-station prizes can be exchanged at the JR Kumagaya Station conventional line ticket gate. Upon redemption, a participant needs to present their card to the station attendant after exiting the ticket gates.
