Subway is a very popular form of transport in Tokyo. They were fast....

The subways together with "above-ground" trains helped to ferry lots of people across the various parts of Tokyo everyday. They were often jam packed. Most of the younger ones would have thought the carriage is too full but this experienced old man obviously thought otherwise. With great agility, he squeezes in!!!

On the train, the people either sleep or reads, making full use of the time. There were lots of people wearing mask too in Tokyo. They wore them everywhere, in the subways, alongside roads, or even in department stores!!!

At the exit, the human traffic continues. Japanese are fast....

Yes, pollution is very bad in Tokyo. Both from cars as well as the factories. If you walk around outside for half a day or so, and use a wet tissue to wipe your face, you will see what I mean.
 

The last pict's exposure seems to be a little too long? All the people looks like ghost... is that what you are trying to achieve? If you like streaking people, can try a slightly shorter exposure.
