>>1639700>>1639703I don't have much issue with the reruns, as I probably didn't see the first broadcasts, but reruns seem rather common for most of their programming, especially some of the more... variety stuff.
There was a special program broadcast recently, "The Lifesaving Fuel Train" about JRF employees being drafted in to operate DD51 diesel locomotives on a section of rail from Nigata to Koriyama, which isn't intended for freight use, in the aftermath of the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. This was due to damage to the Tohoku Mainline.
