I'm a bit slow to the party this time and I seem to have missed out; the link above is giving a 404? Is it just me?

[Ochanomizu]

Hello,

 

Yes, link is broken.

[LeeC22]

I'll repost a link here from my Google Drive, just in case dabsan is having problems with his. If he gets it sorted, I'll remove my link again.

 

Edit: See below for dabsan's updated link.

Premium Express Shimakaze: A Train of Dreams to Reality

 

Kintetsu Railway's "Premium Express Shimakaze" is a popular tourist train that connects Osaka, Kyoto, and Nagoya to

Iseshima.Through extensive market research (over 14,000 people were surveyed), the interior and concept were designed

to utilize customer needs. Explore the variety of premium facilities through a ride onboard, and the latest technology used

to provide travelers a luxurious rail experience. Also, see the Museum Meiji-mura.

 

[Jcarlton]

Looks like it's going to be another good one.

[JR 500系]

My Favourite Kintetsu train.... Perfect in every way. Premium seats, 2 storey buffet car, compartments, lockers, etc.  

[Sacto1985]

I often think of the Kintetsu 50000 Series EMU as essentially inspired by the JR East 251 Series but with better amenities. They've been very popular for the Shimakaze tourist trains from Osaka, Kyoto and Nagoya down to the Shima Peninsula area. I can't wait to see this episode.

I was catching up on the episodes and I just realized I'm missing Ep 12 (was in Japan at the time!). Unfortunately, the original link is dead. Since we've come to expect timely uploads for the newest episodes, I'm also hoping for a quick re-upload of 12. Sorry to be a bother!
