I rode the Fastest Maglev Train on the Planet or should I say, the world's fastest train ever built and I reserved it for the day all to myself. I contacted the maker of the fastest train in the world, JR Central, and asked them if I can reserve their maglev train for an entire day. And they said, Yes. Filmed in June of 2022, I’m the first KZfaq content creator to ever get full access to this Yamanashi Maglev Train testing facility. I'm going to go inside and give a full maglev train tour. JR Central's research started in 1962 and they’ve been developing the Maglev Technology ever since, ultimately building what we’re going to ride today, the Linear Chuo Shinkansen Train…The fastest train on the planet running initially from Tokyo to Nagoya and then to Osaka, officially opening after 2027. It's in the Guinness World Records as the fastest magnetically levitated (magelev) train at the speed of 603 km/h (374.69MPH). The train’s normally operating speed is about 500km/h (311mph). Which means it cuts down the current Tokyo to Osaka 2.5 hour Shinkansen ride down to only 67 minutes. For people in the States, Washington DC to New York in just one hour! Fun little fact, this superconducting maglev train operates without a driver physically seated in the train’s cockpit, instead, you’ll only find cameras there. It’s all fully automated.

In Vancouver, we're contemplating to extend our train lines to where people already live. Then it takes a whole decade to build a few kms of subway.

@ChrisP978 Жыл бұрын

They're basically digging a tunnel from Tokyo to Osaka (500km) for an estimated total cost of $64B (including 3 new high tech stations). They will certainly be selling the technology to other countries to recoup some of their decades of research. It will also be a fairly expensive trip, probably double that of discount airlines but certainly more convenient when you consider how much time you waste in airports.

@AcridWhistle Жыл бұрын

@@ChrisP978 It is likely to be well more than the budget airlines. RIght now there are options for Tokyo to Osaka from $65 to $84 USD, $110 if you want to go via JAL, round trip. A shinkansen ticket is a bit under $100...one way. Of course, you would need to take the train to the airport (so in the $65 example it would add $27 (Shinjuku station)). Although as you mentioned a much comfier, roomier, and convenient experience with less security. Although this distance should be near the upper limit of where high speed rail is winning, but it kind of isn't. It would shave about an hour each way (assuming 30 minutes checkin / security) to go via airline. The SC maglev would probably win...but the price. It gets even worse if you figure somewhere like Tokyo to Kyushu, $103 USD round trip (yes, very cheap for some reason). and 1hr 40 min travel time, vs $200 USD one way ($400 round trip) and 7-hour travel time. A JR pass can be expensive but it makes a tourist numb to the actual costs of the shinkansen and even the subway / buses to a degree in Japan.

@NeoKingArthur Жыл бұрын

I think the US is going to be a little difficult bringing this type of transportation. There's going to be massive lobbying against it from corporations that makes a living from selling road cars, and airline tickets, or even those intercity bus operators. Because automated maglev trains like these will disrupt the way people travel, it's difficult to justify it because everyone else's livelihood will be at stake. It's different from Japanese and basically Asian cultures where they put so much focus on social and community-based economy. Where there are more investment on public transportation like these over individual road car ownership. The more innovative they are when it comes to something that will benefit the general public as a whole, the more attractive the investment. Compared to the US capitalistic economy where they're focus on individual ownership and any innovation that benefits singular persons that will attract the most investments.

How on earth would that help with the ground water situation? It’s almost as if… as if the governor doesn’t _actually_ believe the ground water issue to be that serious and is simply using it as an excuse to shake down JR Tokai with the knowledge that there’s no way that they’ll reroute the 10km segment through Shizuoka to a roundabout path that is much, much longer.

Lovin' the swag, Pao! The feels riding the train on your own, and at that speed must be exhilarating. Cheers!

So why can John Daub do this kind of vid instead of gimmicky streaming milking for money? He even used his kid try to milk money. How about that kickstarter tries to scam for money?

The craziest thing about being on these trains are when you pass another one, both going full speed in opposite directions. It’s like an airplane flying past you from 5 feet away.

ROFL, man, I thought you were joking! xD That's awesome! I remember reading that you needed to enter a lottery system to get a seat in the very few passenger rides that were occasionally opened up... and there you are all by yourself into it. xD Congrats Paolo, never fails to amaze me... Train otaku are all green with envy. xD

Hajime a jp youtuber also got to ride it all to himself. I think JR Central has reached to a few youtubers for PR purposes. Paolo definitely is the first non-Japanese youtuber I know though to have full reservation.

Paolo just uplifts my whole life and day just by hearing his voice. I've never seen him not smile and it's so refreshing, in 4 years I will go to this train line to show support to any business/ entity allowing this Japanese ambassador to film their company/ organization.

wow! what an incredible train, so glad you get to live that experience and thanks for making the video it would be super awesome if they would let you in the factory and teach us some more about it.

10 yrs to build a commuter rail that goes 20mph 🤦‍♀️

Well it's only taken JR 60+ years to take Maglev technology to this point, so I don't know how much they'd have to offer Hawaii in terms of time to development...

Back in the 90s, I got an unlimited tourist pass for two weeks on the Shinkansen for ~ $140. It was a lot of fun to ride that train but I can see that the train is much improved. 500 km is very impressive, though I can't imagine the cost to ride it.
