  1. Well, that was an enjoyable, bumpy trip. The food looked really nice. The decor was "busy" for my taste, but I got the design era. I don't understand why you must pay extra because you are travelling alone. Now, if the train was packed and they wanted to maximize butts in the seats, okay, because that compartment looked like it was designed for four people. Just because you want to travel upscale and not in what I call "Cattle Class" is unfair. They can sell more seats then. Ask if you want to pay extra or don't mind having some travelling company. And yes, the trip was pricey regardless.

  2. Love to see new vids from Solo, particularly these specialty trains!
    Lovely décor and meal, I love the woodwork in the compartments.
    That must be old track they're running on to have that characteristic 'clack-clack' as you run over the expansion joints. New track doesn't have those and is thus much smoother and quieter.

  3. Why did you have to mention the sunflower song at the end??! Now I won’t be able to sleep and will have nightmares. 😬

  4. Agreed – sake should never be served in a paper cup unless it’s a cheap hot sake. But a Junmai Daiginjo??? Never! 👎😮

  5. Your never going to top the original curry on "Sunflower?", it was a buffet restaurant and you went back for a second bowl of rice and it was a family size bowl of rice to have with the curry.

  6. The scenic views from your window were beautiful and varied but the bumpy ride must have been uncomfortable to experience while eating such a beautiful meal. Your compartment was cozy, cheerful and warm. The chicken curry looked portioned to be but a free sample size. Thought the same thing about the price being too much for just yourself.

  7. Yay, a video from Solo-san! I enjoy seeing local sites, but it had been a while since I'd seen a travel video, and those are my favorite. Thank you! 🙂

  8. What a gorgeous train! Sucks a bit that it was slow, but it gives you time to enjoy the scenery and food (if you don’t get motion sickness of course). I absolutely love that you’re covering lots of the Kyushu trains because they’re really cool, and I think that more tourists will be inspired by others like you.

    Also, do you know how many times I get the Sunflower song stuck in my head? Lots. It’s my favourite flower so I can hear that song almost every time I see one. Anywho…thanks Solo-san and see you next time!

  9. I was wondering about the name of the train, but thankfully you immediately explained. The train looks beautiful and the bento box delicious. However, for me, the journey would be too long (in Shinkansen, it would be less than one hour). And serving sake with a paper cup or curry in a plastic bowl are "no go" for me, in this kind of luxury train.

  10. you are consciousness sui generis & priceless

  11. Your meal looked so fresh and appetizing. Interior of train so warm and inviting. Thank you for sharing your travels STJ. May your journeys be great 🤗

    To those who have seen to miss his recent travels….check his recent videos 😎

  12. Such a beautiful train interior! The many patterns and textures compliment each other. Thank you for mentioning the name of the designer (Eiji Mitooka), as I am now looking for more of his work. I enjoy your videos greatly!

  13. Those cushioned seats in your seating area kinda reminded me of the kind of seats I saw in a couple of different teahouses I went to. I was halfway expecting them to serve you a full British style tea service!

  14. Start early with diversified investments in Bitcoin, stocks, bonds, and real estate. Maximize contributions to tax-advantaged accounts like 401(k)s and IRAs. Regularly review and adjust your strategy to ensure security

  15. Great trip. This train route is combining Airport Train with Regular Train and Luxurious Train all in one trainset. That curry on Snack category rather than meal category is bit weird, but when i see the portion, I know why.

  16. Hello my friend I love the beautiful interior and the bento box looked delicious.Its a shame about the curry .Thanks for the video kind regards from Australia ❤

  17. Commenting for the algo: As many bento's as I've seen you enjoy, I'm afraid that if it were me I would have collected all the bamboo boxes and crafted them into decorator boxes for my home lol. It's good to see you again. Have a great day! 🙂

  18. Paper cups, plastic bowls, and wood spoons. For that price i'd expect a bit more. Nevertheless a great and enjoyable video. Thanks for taking us along.

  19. Beautiful train and journey. As soon as you said Sunflower song it popped into my head and now I am singing it at my desk lol Have a wonderful day. 🙂
