Hello Kitty Shinkansen changed from Kodama 838 to Kodama 840?

Hello, I’m just wondering if Hello Kitty Shinkansen from Hakata to Shin-Osaka had changed from Kodama 838 to Kodama 840. The official site still says Kodama 838 but when searching the train from the JR-West reservation website, the result shows Kodama 840.

Thanks.

  1. It seems that neither official site or the timetables have been updated with the change, but I would assume that JR West’s reservation system is correct.

  2. I would assume someone select the wrong train for Hello Kitty shinkansen in the English reservation system, because Kodama 840 doesn’t even run to Shin-Osaka (it runs from Hakata to Okayama) Try searching for Hakata to Shin-Osaka and it will result in system error.

    I believe it was Kodama 840 until March this year, so they probably forgot to change the English system.
