"Nozomi" Shinkansen train, Hakata to Tokyo

[Sacto1985]

YouTube poster 1125superbanana has probably posted the best full-length length video of the Nozomi Shinkansen trip from Hakata (Fukuoka) all the way to Tokyo, thanks to it being shot all in daytime:

Note that if you have the Internet bandwidth, this video can be enjoyed at full 1080p resolution.

Wow! 

 

I bet the one taking the video will feel the strain in his/ her arm with holding up the video camera for 5 hours + !!

 

I'm guessing his seated in the middle, say about the 8th car? saw the marking on Hiroshima station.. Nice video! Now it just makes me feel more like going Japan again...

Interestingly, the stations with the most people getting off and on the train are Hiroshima, Okayama, Shin-Osaka, Kyoto and Nagoya--Okayama and Shin-Osaka especially because both are major transfer points to other significant JR lines.

I think he used a tripod, you can't hold your hand still like in the video.

I had the headphones on and this video on my notebooks monitor, which made it feel like I was riding the train. I even started to look for the conductor over my left shoulder.

Here's an old favorite. 500 series on a Nozomi service.  For high quality, you need to buy DVD.

I got two way better zenmen tenbou videos, done on a 700 Series Shinkansen:

Passing Shin-Yamaguchi Station to passing Shin-Iwakuni Station

Note the train in the second video slows down a bit passing Tokuyama Station, because the station is built on a fairly sharp curve.
