HankyuDentetsu Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Speaking of commuter statistics, does anyone know where I can find a list of the busiest Shinkansen stations on the network? I can't seem to find a single data source which separates and ranks Shinkansen-only passengers by station. Any help greatly appreciated. Link to comment
bikkuri bahn Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 For the Tokaido shinkansen stations, these are the numbers for those that separate shinkansen and zairaisen pax numbers: Daily Shinkansen passengers 1. Tokyo 202200 2. Shin Osaka 163800 3. Kyoto 77400 *unfortunately, Nagoya numbers (432000) include all passengers, but likely the shinkansen only number will be close to Shin-Osaka's https://www.jcomm.co.jp/transit/price/databook/pdf/19D_41.pdf *interesting is the breakdown of types of passengers- 70% on the Tokaido Shinkansen are business travelers (only 9% are tourists), which is the big reason why the JR Pass (which is classified as a discount ticket much like an APEX fare) is not usable on Nozomi services. 3 Link to comment
