Hi Folks, 

 

I should be in Tokyo for a couple of days of work and .... train addiction. As I'm not with my family ... I can make a train orgy, riding all the ones I did not had time to do before

 

 

 

Below my train schedule - the most sensitive / difficult to obtain is booked via the various websites. Due to change difference, even the Saphir Odoriko is quite affordable. Of course for the Spacia X / Revaty / Fujisan View Express, I've to purchase a std ticket on top when I'll be on-site.
