It is interesting that the outside doors simply slide like on a 1960s commuter train instead of moving outwards and then slide away, which would provide flush surface.
It is not easy to achieve both stable high-speed performance in a straight line as a Shinkansen and performance in a curved line or on a gradient on a conventional line running in mountainous areas.
It is just like speed skating and figure skating, which require completely different skate shoes and techniques.
May I have a small small tiny request?
could you please not do the high pitch voice when you're narrative? It's extremely annoying 🙏
once heard it becomes frustrating because its done so often it cant be unheard and kills the enjoyment.
Just a personal opinion , no offense intended 🙏
thank you for your time and perhaps consideration.
18000 people in one day, that's the difference in management.
In India, we have stations with an average of 3.4 M passengers in one day.
Thanks for sharing your video❤. We will traveling to Tokyo next week .
I’ve been to Japan a couple of times and I looove their trains. Just fantastic. You’ll also notice the stations are spotlessly clean. A pleasure to catch one of these bullet trains.

niceshinkansen☕️danke❤️👏😊
Can You understand the Japaneseque aesthetics❓
8:31 how fast are we going here? Hard to tell
Excellent video! I love all the details, rarely seen in other train channels.
Can I bring oversized luggage in green class without having a reservation?
Speed trains are common for Japan ❤❤❤
chinese train speed 350 kmph
A goddamn shame the US doesnt have this kind of network. We truly are stuck jn the 20th century
You're talking to much about nothing as if we didn't know that
Yamagata Station is the main station for the E8 Series Yamagata Shinkansen🚄. Yamagata is a paradise for meat, ramen, rice, sake, and fruit. It is close to tourist spots such as Zao, Yamadera, Mogami River, and Kaminoyama Onsen, and is surrounded by nature, where endangered species live.
Great vid thank you
Where are the nose cone covers stored?
Stylish train! Still partial to the N700S (in the background at the Tokyo station, 17:00) I’ve ridden to Kyoto. Thanks!
Japanese train seats are better than first class airline seats of my country
日本技术太强了，为日本创新👍
If only the quality and comfort of these Hitachi units were the same in the UK
Great Videos
Had to watch this video because by chance my only Shinkansen experience has been between Koriyama and Ueno or Tokyo stations.
My wife and I have ridden on every Shinkansen line, including the one to Ureshino Onsen. We're excited to ride this one soon.
What a beauty!
I enjoy your videos and I look forward to next one
For some reason I thought Japanese rail platforms all had barriers for the full length, Koriyama did have this
Japanese train enthusiasts call E8 eggplant.
Food for thought:
– The Chinese High Speed trains regularly operates at a faster speed than the Japanese ones.
– The Chinese High Speed Rail [HSR] currently operates about 46,000KM (around 28,700+ Miles) of high speed rail tracks compare to [big yawn..] 3,000KM (that's not even 2,000 Miles) tracks currently being run by the Japanese.
– The Chinese are more open to the possibility technology transfer of their HSR system while the Japanese prefer the low-interest-with-gazillion-year-to-pay loan payment scheme with ZERO POSSIBILITY of technology transfer.
Look…, the Japanese USED TO rule consumer electronics, chips manufacturing, hybrid/electric vehicles, etc. Where are they now??
Beautyful,i like it ,top train and movie
awesome !
Sorry to say but that is blue, not purple on the E8.
7:56 there is more vibration than I expected
Thank you for come to Japan!
I have'nt ridden the E8 series,but I'd like to ride one someday.
Looks like a plane in inside view
interesting subject matter, but i can't tollerate your manipulated lollypop modulated voice
1:30 is that Himeji Station?
In Japan, standard class Is equal to European fist classes
Too far away from Europe but it would have been nice to go for a ride there. Great trains.
ohh i didn't know the nose length was for noise reduction. i was hoping it wasn't just some kind of overcompensation by designers for something 😀 whew
I feel like a must experience for visiting Japan is being on the platform when a train goes through at full speed on the center tracks. You don't truly appreciate just how fast those trains travel at until you are standing less than 20 feet from them in motion.
amazinng, my country still cannot build bullet train, our government but from china, but i prefer japanese train 🙂
