青あお電でん車しゃ

noun

second-to-last train of the day

Dated term, historically used in contrast with 赤電車 (last train). Now rarely used; modern Japanese prefers 終電の一つ前 or similar expressions.

• 昔むかしは青あお電でん車しゃという言こと葉ばで、終しゅう電でんの一ひとつ前まえの電でん車しゃを呼よんでいた。

  In the past, the term 青電車 was used to refer to the train just before the last train.
