Does all local trains have internet service in Japan or only in the stations thanks
As always….clear and concise!
I have been on a few of these trains 😊
Probably THE BEST train humanity has EVER created!
Hi thank you for the video, I have 1 question regardind luggage on train. If I have 2 or 3 luggages both under 160 cm can I stay in normal reserved seats or should i reserve 1 with oversized luggage?
Hi, would you know if the food cart offers small bento and if is it cheap compared to vendors at the station?
