Twilight Express to be discontinued next year
bikkuri bahn posted a topic in Japan Rail: News & General Discussion
It was announced Wednesday that the Osaka-Sapporo sleeper train Twilight Express service will end in spring 2015. The primary (public) reason given for discontinuance was aging rolling stock. With the axing of this service, all overnight sleeper trains beginning or ending at Osaka Station will disappear. http://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/html/20140528/k10014779141000.html
