Good PR move by JR East.

 

Would love to be in Takasaki on July 2, but you'd have to camp out there now to get a good spot and then when the train came along you'd find two hundred Japanese with cell phone cameras in front of you.

 

Will have to keep an eye open for what is running in November.
