The Nishi-Nippon Railroad Co. (Nishitetsu) revealed a new business rationalization plan that will involve eliminating up to 140 runs on 31 routes in the Fukuoka City metropolitan area. The impetus for their rationalization was the application of 1,000 yen tolls during the Golden Week holidays. Further cutbacks and elimination of unprofitable routes might occur if the new Hatoyama Administration eliminates expressway tolls, as it has pledged to do. Nishitetsu already reduced some expressway runs on September 1.
