Talented Japanese railway worker gives commuters serendipitous surprise on station piano

This railway worker is pulling more than just heart strings!
But one particular Japanese railroad worker in Sapporo decided to use his break time for a special performance.
Filmed in Sapporo’s Odori Station and posted by the Sapporo Municipal Subway’s official Twitter (@sapporokotsu_PR), the video shows the employee delighting commuters and his co-workers alike with a live piano concert.
▼ The station made sure to emphasize that he was on break while dishing out the impromptu solo.
While it’s not the first time Japanese Twitter went wild over a sudden piano performance, many Japanese net users marveled at the railway worker’s piano skills.
