☆★☆This is what it was actually like!☆★☆
* The curtains of the seat are a little transparent and sexy.
* The design of the train is stunning in every detail.
* I was doing my business in the bathroom and forgot to close the lock, so a strange guy opened the door.
* Currently, only package tours are sold, and one-way tickets cannot be purchased.
* Online reservations can be made one month prior to the travel date.
* When you get on the train, I recommend you get a map with the times when you can see the ocean!

Pwew, such a relief to hear the announcements in English at the train station. I’ve decided that when I visit that I will leave plenty of time to navigate but the translation helps a lot. I’m trying to learn some Japanese but it would be years before I learned all the stops, ha ha. 😊

Back in the 1980's, I moved to Germany with my then spouse. We were stationed in Berlin when it was still East and West Germany. In order to pick up our vehicle, we had to take an overnight sleeper train through the East German part of Germany, requiring travel through the Russian occupied part of Germany. Anyway, our overnight train trip was awesome. There is nothing like the gentle rocking of the train while trying to sleep. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
