It’s incredible how a head Japan was at the time. For some rich western countries, high speed rail is still a pipedream.
It’s 60 years old?! What the hell! The UK can’t even complete HS2 for a most basic high speed rail that only saves 15 mins compared to normal trains 😓
Japan is an amazing mash of contradictions – the Shinkansen is an engineering and operational marvel. But if you have tried to navigate the fractured and opaque ticket purchasing process or the truly shitty wi-fi gateway while using the otherwise impeccable experience you understand how messed it can be.
Describe the current state of Japan in one analogy:
The museum in Nagoya is worth visiting!
Had a commemorative beer for the 50th on the shinkansen
That was neat
Also, fuck that was 10 years ago!?
