I'm taking Limited Express Spacia X, which is a brand new train operated by Tobu Railway between Asakusa and Tobu-nikko (or Kinugawa-onsen)
The train has 6 cars and 6 types of seats. I'm trying Standard Seat and Compartment.

Seeing the inari with different toppings gives me an idea to make that for myself. In the UK inari are usually just filled with plain sushi rice and put in mixed sets with maki and uramaki rolls. I like inari because they're easy to make at home, though you have to be gentle with the tofu pockets

I am amazed that the railway companies have the capacity to include special extra trains. Also the funds to buy the new trains or have them converted from a different use. I do not like the restricted view caused by the shape of the camparment window.. A hexagon is a waste of space. Once again I find your ekiben interesting.

Great videos. I was so close to visiting and working in Japan at one point myself. I had experience with Motion Capture and in late 2015 I was in contact with Capcom about the facial likeness role of Leon for the Resident Evil 2 Remake. I failed to mention I also have a voice acting background, in the end I lost the part and I can't forgive myself for wasting such an opportunity. That would've been a real dream come true to visit Japan.

@straightpipediesel 8 ай бұрын

That's a result of Japan's narrow railway gauge (the distance between the tracks). The rails are only 75% as wide as standard gauge. This means the whole train is narrower, and there's more of a lever effect from the center of gravity to the wheels, so the train is "tippier". This also means the top speed is limited (typically 100 MPH vs 125 MPH conventional trains on the Northeast Corridor in the US, and 150 MPH for Acela Express) and you can't fit any cargo reasonably on it (Japan has the lowest percent of freight by rail in any developed country; this is the reason for all the ferries you see on this channel).

Only downside with Japanese trains IMO is that they feel the need to play a whole symphony in 5 acts, just to make a quick, short announcement about something or wish passengers welcome on board. With all that noise playing like the sunflower song every few minutes, I'd lose my mind if riding that train 😳
