Amber Mcguire+FollowFirst-Class on Japan’s Fastest Train?!Just watched a TikTok of someone riding first-class on Japan’s Shinkansen (the world’s fastest bullet train) and wow, it looks unreal. For about $106, you get heated, reclining seats, tons of legroom, snacks, and even a blanket and towel—all while zooming at 200 mph! Even economy looks super comfy. Plus, it’s way better for the planet than flying or driving. Why can’t we have this in the US? Would you pay more taxes for high-speed trains here? #Shinkansen #TravelGoals #HighSpeedRail #Japan #EcoFriendly #Transportation40Share
umccall+FollowSnake Stops Japan’s Bullet Trains?!Only in Japan: a 39-inch snake managed to slither onto the overhead power lines of the country’s busiest bullet train route, shutting down service between Osaka and Tokyo for hours! Over 86 trains were delayed, and thousands of commuters were left stranded. The Shinkansen is famous for being super punctual, so this reptile drama is wild. Turns out, this isn’t even the first time a snake has caused chaos on these trains! #Japan #BulletTrain #SnakeOnATrain #TravelDrama #Shinkansen #Transportation454Share
umccall+FollowJapan’s Bullet Trains Stopped by Wild FloodsRecord-breaking rain just drenched northeastern Japan, flooding homes and even halting the famous Shinkansen bullet trains for hours. Akita city had to issue its highest emergency alert, and several rivers burst their banks, submerging roads and cutting off travel. With more rain on the way, residents are bracing for more wild weather. Can you imagine your commute getting canceled by a river running through your street? #Transportation #JapanFloods #Shinkansen00Share
