Six minutes! Heck I'm just getting started on my shower in that length of time lol. The room was very nice.
Looks like a nice first class sleeper train. I still feel there is a place for good overnight sleeper trains. It helps get you there while you would be sleeping. No need to get up early and ride on one of the high speed trains to your destination. It also would save you a hotel room at the city you were planing to go to if it was too far for a one day round trip. I assume the reason for no food service was due to the departure and arrival times and they assumed you would eat either before you boarded or after you leave in the morning.
How is he so good at speaking different languages
Didn’t know bro looked so good
Nice video
Great video Lonestar, this ride is definitely on my bucket list. Keep it up!
4:38 No food sold on board: definitely different from sleeper trains run by Amtrak, Via Rail or by almost any of those rail companies based in the British Isles or Schengen Area.
I thought that the drivers cab must be very small as you could see him driving it forward to join it up to the other train.I almost expected his feet to be on the shoulders of the man doing the train coupling!
No horn "lever." Trains in Japan have horn "pedals" on the floor. What you saw were the reverser and brake on the left and throttle on the right. The floor has the pedal for the variable horn which has 2 modes – warning and "dire" warning frequencies – horns are only allowed to be used when passing construction work or when someone looks as though they're too close to the tracks on platforms.
5:20 Sunrise does not pick or drop off passenger in Hamamatsu for Tokyo bound train. However it does stop in Hamamatsu in the other direction. Edit: Hamamatsu stop for tokyo bound train is for crew change.
Again, great video as usual. I travelled on Sunrise Izumo several years ago from Tokyo to Yonago, I was only able to book a smoking single room on the lower deck. However my experience for Sunrise is still great and I was able to get a shower card at boarding in Tokyo station.
Wow it’s too bad they don’t have more sleeper trains, in Europe the sleeper trains are booming
