Bill, how recent is this movie? I ask because I'm trying to decide if running a green-striped 200-series (as opposed to the new blue-and-white-with-thin-green-stripe — do these color schemes have names, anyway?) would be prototypical for a layout set in the last couple of years…the older color scheme is far easier to obtain in N right now :D

It was posted in the last few days, but that doesn't mean it's new.  I thought it was interesting because of the angle showing the city.  I'll see if I can find out how old it is.

 

From Wikipedia, a 200 series with green windows photographed  in March 2006.

Last un-refurbished 200 Series was withdrawn in May 2007 and all Series 200 are expected to be withdrawn by spring 2011 (about when several Shinkansen extensions will open).
