The Tokyo Metropolitan Police said Thursday that coin lockers at 14 JR train stations and some subway stations will be closed as part of anti-terror security measures before and during the visit to Japan of U.S. President Barack Obama next week.
Obama is due to arrive in Japan on April 23 and leave on April 25.
Lockers at 10 major JR stations such as Tokyo, Shinjuku and Shibuya will not be accessible to the public from April 22-25. JR East said some 4,700 lockers will be closed. Officials said anyone currently using lockers must retrieve their belongings by April 21, Fuji TV reported.
As everyone knows the President of the United States doesn't travel by motorcade when visiting other countries he takes the train. That's why they haul the presidential limousine all over the world so that President Obama can ride the train.
