Shinkansen Bullet Train – Japan

Here are a few more bullet trains.

I have to admit that I’m very impressed with this train. We here in Switzerland do have quite a good train system too, but when you then see what the Japanese do in terms of train systems and connections – that is simply impressive.

An example: I had a ticket with reserved seating from Kobe to Tokyo. As we ran about thirty minutes early we checked to see if we can change the ticket to an earlier train. There where three trains that left Kobe for Tokyo before my scheduled departure. They had a train every 10 Minutes. This for a Swiss is unbelievable for a high speed train system a for such long distances.

The ride was smooth and departed and arrived to the minute as per schedule.

Ok tech freaks, enjoy!!
