in japanese •  7 years ago  (edited)

I got on the Shinkansen MAX TOKI. It runs between Tokyo and Niigata as the Joetsu Shinkansen.

カモノハシみたいでかわいいフォルム

Toki is drawn on the train body.

車体にはトキが描かれています。

Passenger seats are second floor seats.
Although it is a rare Shinkansen on the second floor seat, it will be discontinued in 2020 unfortunately.

客席は2階建てになっています。

The train is so fast, it turned that old KFC man into Doremon.

Thank you for comment!

Look nice and clean...

Thank you.
Yes, it is used cleanly.

また近いうちに新潟に行きたいですね。
そして自分が入った集合写真も撮ってこようかな(笑)

新潟いいですよね。
集合写真は新潟駅の名物ですね。

Kinakomochi, thank-you for doing a segment on the bullet train. I am so fascinated by how fast it travels. While in Japan, I didn't get to travel on this type of train, but I will be sure to go on it, the next time I visit Japan. Really enjoyed your pictures!!!!!

Thank you.
The Joetsu Shinkansen runs 270 km between Tokyo and Niigata in 1 hour and 40 minutes.
There are Shinkansen in Tohoku, Joetsu, Hokuriku, Tokaido, Sanyo, Kyushu, Hokkaido in Japan.
Depending on the location, it may be cheaper to go by plane, but I like traveling by bullet train.

I will definitely try it at least once. It must be something to see as the train is going so fast. Thank-you Kinakomochi!!!

The group photo is so funny! What an interesting mix! It is too bad that the second floor seats will be discontinued. I bet you can get an amazing view from up there!

Thank you.
The view from the second floor seat was good.
It is very sad that it will be abolished.
