On his journey across Japan, Chris visits a railway in the little visited prefecture of Wakayama which was about to go bankrupt before the arrival a few years ago of an orphaned calico cat called Tama.
Tama was appointed station master and soon became a national celebrity – saving the line and earning millions for the owners.
Chris is granted an audience with Tama which as it later turned out was one of her last.
RIP Tama… Long Live Nee-Tama her successor. Only in Japan!
