One of the first things foreigners (Gaijin in Japanese) will notice about train/subway travel here in Japan is how calm and orderly people are when using the trains. When a train arrives people are lined up in two rows to get on the carriage, no pushing or shoving, everyone politely waits for the passengers to get off and then everyone gets on in a neat orderly fashion in two lines. Their elementary teachers would be proud that the lining up skills they taught in school are still being used by adults. All very robotic.
