[[In a World]] where the Japanese passenger railway system was never privatized, Naoto Takayama is accepted to the Japanese National Railways on-the-job training ("OJT") program. He hopes this is the first step toward him becoming a train operator... but he's assigned to ''security'' squad K-4.<ref>This might be a [[Stealth Pun]]; "K-yon" is pronounced remarkably similarly to "keion", a term which is (logically enough) explained in ''[[K-On!]]''.</ref>. [[Hilarity Ensues]], as does [[Fan Service]] and Drama.

tropelist

* [[Beach Episode]]: Episode 4, complete with the girls being assigned [[Fan Service]] swimsuits by Iida so that they can serve as distractions while their male teammates carry out a security sweep.
* [[Big Breasts, Big Deal]]: Of the women in squad K-4, Sakurai is smallest and is still able to fill a bikini top; Iida has a noticeably-large chest (and seems indifferent to it), and Koumi has very-large ones (which occasionally leads to embarrassment on her part). Averted with Sasshou, who does ''not'' make any comments about her smaller-but-still-noticeable bust size.
* [[Clothing Damage]]: A few examples, but Episode 6 is [[egregious]] - Koumi starts the episode wearing a pretty outfit, and ends it wearing {{spoiler|shoes, socks, and panties}}, because everything else has been torn away, not all at once.
* [[A Day in the Limelight]]): Iida finally gets one in Episode 12. (Averted for Iwaizumi, who remains a supporting character throughout the series... but he's a male and this series is heavy on the [[Fan Service]], so it's expected.)
* [[Fan Service]]: [[Panty Shot]]s abound, and [[Big Breasts, Big Deal|Koumi]] has never heard of a sports bra. See also the entry above for "Big Breasts, Big Deal".
* [[Five-Man Band]]: Squad K-yon.
**[[The Hero]]: Takayama
**[[The Lancer]]: Sakurai
**[[The Big Guy]]: Iwaizumi
**[[The Smart Guy]]: Koumi
**[[The Chick]]: Iida
* [[Funbag Airbag]]: [[Played for Laughs]] in one episode, where Sakurai stops one of Takayama's model trains with her breast. [[Played Straight]] in other episodes, usually but not always Takayama/Koumi or Takayama/Sakurai.
* [[Idol Singer]]: Noa, who first appears in Episode 4 and becomes a recurring guest-star for the remainder of the series.
* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Koumi. The other females take turns providing their share of [[Fan Service]], but Koumi provides more than any two others.
* [[Rail Enthusiast]]:
** Takayama applied for the OJT program in order to become a train operator. He has a permanent track for model railroad trains in his room at home, complete with a full basic operator's setup.
** Sasshou can identify trains by their sound. Her friend Kaori (in Episode 3) is even better at this.
** Prince Bernina (from Episodes 10-11) invites Takayama to be on a [[First-Name Basis]] because they're both rail enthusiasts.
** Out-of-universe, the entire series is [[Fan Service]] for [[Rail Enthusiast]]s.
* [[Requisite Royal Regalia]]: In Episodes 10 and 11, Bernina has a fancy outfit, complete with epaulets that look like the came out of ''[[Revolutionary Girl Utena]]''. The clothing becomes important to the plot in Episode 11.
* [[The Show Must Go On]]: In episode 4, when {{spoiler|Takayama is stabbed while apprehending a person who was trying to attack [[Idol Singer|Noa]]}} on-stage, they worked it into the show so as to not alarm the audience.
* [[Suggestive Collision]]: Episode 9 has Takayama getting the [[Marshmallow Hell]] version while operating a train car.
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Sakurai and Koumi, respectively. On separate occasions, Sakurai tries dressing in a more feminine manner and Koumi tries dressing the way Sakurai usually does; neither attempt goes well.
* [[Unwanted Harem]]: Iida, Koumi, Sakurai, Sasshou, and Noa are all interested in Takayama. Takayama is interested in [[Rail Enthusiast|trains]].

''Spoiler tropes:''
* {{spoiler|[[Raised as the Opposite Gender]], [[Tomboy Princess]]: Bernina}}.
