Sorry to be "that person," but these aren't train tickets. They're for admission into the train station. The text on them says, "普通入場券" = normal admission ticket
旅客車内に立入ることはできません = You cannot enter the passenger cars.
発売当日1回限り有効 = only valid once on sale date

Thanks for the info, no one has ever told us this before and they have been seen a lot. Are you referring to all of them or those in the first post?

midnightrem.bsky.social•124 days ago

Just the ones in the first post. :)

Also, I'm not sure they're from 1956/1957 - I think they're from Showa 56/57, which would be 1981/1982. If you compare the prices & years on them to your follow up post (https://bsky.app/profile/presentcorrect.bsky.social/post/3liwlzfjkhc2d) the prices are too high for the 1950s, & they likely wouldn't have been using western dates on tix then.

oh the first bright ones, yes I did wonder about the era because of the colours and style.
