Posted by 9 local on Mon Aug 10 13:13:08 2009, in response to Photos: Heavier rail in Japan, posted by Deaks on Mon Aug 10 10:35:35 2009. As for those "old-school" Shinkansens...The original 0-series was retired last fall from Kodama services on the Sanyo Shinkansen. The 100-series still runs Kodama services between Osaka and Hakata on the Sanyo Shinkansen. The 200-series, which is what you saw, operates on the Tohoku Shinkansen in Yamabiko and Nasuno services and on the Joetsu Shinkansen in Toki services. One set of 200-series has been restored to its original livery of cream with a green stripe over the windows. None of these trains will be in service beyond 2010 or 2011. |
