gizmodo.com — IKEA has outfitted a train in Kobe with sofas and curtains probably named things like Oompa-loompa, Svenssonjohansensson, Frida, and Bucarest. Unfortunately, the makeover is temporary, to mark the opening of a new shop in the city

I give it a week before half the stuff is missing and the other half is ripped up with graffiti on it. Then again maybe the Japanese aren't into completely destroying anything of value like we are over here in the states.

I am not sure why everyone says this looks more comfortable than a normal japanese subway... the seats are just the same benches normally on japanese subways with a different print, and a box around the hand rail on the end with the same print on it. Pretty sweet to see the inside without all the adds though, and the outside/curtains are nice too i guess.
