A Wink for Those Who Know, Cool Even If You Don't — Original T-Shirts Inspired by JTB Timetable Go on Sale

An original T-shirt collection inspired by the world of JTB Timetable launches at the online store "pTa.shop" on September 4, 2026 (Friday). The lineup spans six designs, each available in six colors, from JTB Publishing, the JTB group company behind travel and lifestyle information.

First published in 1925, JTB Timetable marked its 100th anniversary in 2025 as one of Japan's longest-running publications. This original collection draws on motifs that have colored the timetable's history and been cherished by readers for decades — timetable symbols, the nostalgic cover design from the Showa 30s era (mid-1950s to early 1960s), and the beloved stationmaster illustration.

The designs are instantly recognizable to railway fans, yet easy to incorporate into everyday fashion. Whether you love trains and travel or simply enjoy retro design and culture, these are lifestyle items that let you enjoy railway culture through design.
