New Type: JR East E5 Shinkansen


Recommended Posts

Guest JRF-1935

What will never cease to amaze me with japanese Shinkansens is that they really look like an airplane: a fat body with very small windows.

This one looks like a "bottle nose" dolphin to me - rather than the "duck bill" version.  I'm sure this all has to do with turbulence at high speeds, especially in tunnels.  Wish I was a Physics Major so I could understand all this stuff!  :laugh:
