  1. Thank you for these videos. Your detailed overviews of the trains themselves give me something to look forward to in my future travel. Looking forward to seeing GranClass as well! I see they have the guilt free recliner shells for the back of their seats.

  2. I don’t understand Japanese rail culture that trains are to arrive to the second that they are scheduled to. Japan considers a train one minute late to be “unacceptably delayed.” Yikes!!!
