KYOTO - A steel plate weighing around 1.8 kilograms fell onto tracks at JR Kyoto Station on Monday afternoon, but no one was injured and train services were not affected, JR West said.

JR West said the plate was likely roofing material left behind after construction. Renovation work on the roof had been underway at the station in Kyoto, a city in western Japan, from Thursday to Friday.
