I’m travelling through Japan in a few weeks and am trying to book train journeys ahead of time because my itinerary is ambitious. I’ve found making reservations for shinkansen and specific trains operated by certain areas relatively hassle free (JR West/JR Kyushu) but I’m having trouble with those operated by JR Central.
I’m trying to book a leg from Nagiso to Matsumoto (chuo line) but I can’t seem to find a way to book ahead of time.
Is there a way to book from outside of Japan?
If not, is it possible to book from another location’s station (like Shin-Yokohama) a few days in advance once I arrive in Japan?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
