1 Japanese Station Lunchbox Wrappers Railways started in Japan in As the network spread and more people travelled by train, there was increasing demand for more onboard food services. One answer to this need was ekiben station lunchboxes. It is widely believed that ekiben started when a Japanese hotel owner sold a lunchbox containing two rice balls and several slices of pickled radish at Utsunomiya Station in Initially, ekiben were sold from the platform to passengers leaning out the windows of trains standing at stations. Today, most are sold from platform kiosks and onboard wagon services. With the rise in ekiben sales, wrapper designs became more elaborate, evolving from a simple bamboo leaf of 1885 to colourful designs showing local tourist spots, and even socio-political comment. This article presents some of the wrappers used on the Tohoku and Tokaido main lines. The Tohoku main line is a key artery connecting Tokyo with Morioka and Aomori in northeast Japan. It opened in September 1891 and 2011 marked the 120th anniversary. Nagano Decades-old photograph of ekiben sales through train windows while standing at platform (The Railway Museum) Ekiben kiosk at Ueno Station (NRE) The Kodama limited express (introduced in 1958) with sealed windows made purchase from the platform impossible and marked the start of onboard cafeteria services.
