To commemorate the Great Tohoku Earthquake and to promote Tohoku, there will be a special shinkansen service from Tokyo station to Shin Aomori on April 3th. Only 100 people will be allowed to join, I think there are still seats available. It's open to any foreign resident in Japan. You'll also get the new 5-days JR East Pass.

Seems like a very cool initiative. I like that guy, John Daub, he makes some great content on his Only in Japan channel, and he's kinda like a densha otaku.
