A train introduced in 1997 which still looks futuristic in 2026 is unparalleled.

4:55 a random yellow S15 appears! Nice!

13:40 confirmed my suspicion: they put the train on a siding somewhere so the driver could leave it unattended for their break. The train you took on the return trip was the same one you arrived with (NT3003).

4:50 random ichigo appears. I guess a it's a given for a rare car to show up in a rare station.

The video shifted from the loneliest bullet train station to the loneliest train line

Dang, really quite surprised Shin-Iwakuni isn't used an awful lot, given it's got quite a lot of tourist attractions around.

Definitely a place I wanna visit soon and real cool to see you visit :)

I really like how the thermometer at 7:00 gives you the option between Celsius and... Celsius lol

Nobody can change my mind that the 500 series is the most futuristic looking (and most beautiful) Shinkansen. The only modern Shinkansen that comes close is the E7.
