- This time, riding on the Akita Shinkansen Series E6 "Komachi" from Akita to Omiya.
Akita is famous for heavy snow area in Japan.
Despite a heavy snow, running no delays and blow the snow by super rapid
7:42 Running over 300km/h

Fantastic! 316 kms/hr on a snowy day. Great respect for the railway personnel to make this happen.
Try it bro, you can ride the highest speed train for the first time in Southeast Asia. The highest speed is 350 kilometers per hour, the Indonesian fast train Ja jakarta - Bandung, the newest, most sophisticated in Southeast Asia, the first,.the way to the beautiful and comfortable and beautiful and cool and cool city of Bandung, thank you sis and bro.........
Bad weather doesn't stop the Japanese trains like some countries - I'm looking at you - the UK
It is all about safety
Not everything is to be bragged about Japan, it doesn't simply snow as much in Japan as in West.
@@victor123442 so they prepare better for a rarer event.
Kudos Japan!
@@victor123442 parts of Japan are some of the snowiest in the world
@@victor123442 Hokkaido... The UK shuts down even in non snowy areas.
I'm in italy. We have high speed trains too but I gotta tell you that Japanese trains are at another level.
Very very cool.
I think so.China too
I have been to Italy and Japan several times and, yes, Japanese high speed rail is much faster.
@@Zifengtower China will never reach the safety that Shinkansen has
@@2triky it depends on the line though, the highest operating speed of 320kmh is only allowed on the tohoku shinkansen line, other lines like tokaido are limited to 285 and lines like the hokuriku to 260kmh... italys high speed network also varies because they use shared infrastructure with local trains of course but the dedicated high speed tracks consintantly have the same speed limit of 300kmh as far as i know...
@@2triky not much faster, only 20 km/h faster
I am Japanese but live in a warmer climate, so this is the first time I have seen a bullet train running in the snow.
I was surprised to see it running at a speed of 320 km/h despite the snow!😱
I salute the drivers and railway staff who keep the bullet train running in the snow.
Only the first train that goes through after a snow will have trouble. But the first train pushes the snow away so there's no trouble for the other trains. Lol

@@elteescat That’s not true. Railways in Japan have heated tracks. Otherwise there will be accidents. I mean Akita where this train left is a prefecture on Japan Sea side where it gets about 2-4 meters of snow in one day. It’s heated and monitored tracks. If something goes wrong sensors would let the system know it’s not safe to operate.

I love Japan 🇯🇵
What an impressive bullet train....
Best trains and service in the world is in Japan! Greetings from Ireland!
Japanese Trains are Top Notch! , nothing like it
If you are traveling in the snowy mini Shinkansen section, I recommend the seats near the back of the first car.
You can clearly see how the snow that has been pushed off flows past the window.
雪の新幹線は本当に最高ですね
そうですね!
雪の中を駆け抜ける新幹線かっこいいですよね!
I love Japan 🇯🇵🇯🇵 and I wish I would have been born there. Love from India🇮🇳🇮🇳
I heard Japan is building a bullet train system in India
@@MrStark-up6fi Yes India and japan together building bullet train project the first track will be operational by 2026😊
Japanese are well cultured... they have their country as clean as their home..truly home.. lot of respect from BHARATHA..
Pure engineering marvel.. such high speeds under such conditions and absolutely no vibrations inside.. if you are a mechanical engineer - you’d understand the complexity of this design!!
Many thanks! Best wishes from Austria!
the train look absolutely gorgeous in the freezing cold.
I love Japan everything is Systematic clean hightec and beautiful culture with beautiful people
What a homogeneous society can achieve.
Amazing japan love from India 🔥🔥
コレぞ正しく如何なる極寒豪雪にも負けぬ現代の小野小町ですね!^^
In North America, at least in the great plains, we've had one of the warmest winters of the last 20 years, and very little snow, which has made me quite sad. It made me very happy to see all the snowy forests passing by the window. Thanks for posting!
In Minnesota its snowed a lot.
@@ceylontea5877 I should move north lol
Same here in north india up in himalayas. Very less snow this time. Very strange.
先住民を滅ぼしたからだろ。
@@ceylontea5877
先住民に土地を返せ。
As an American I can only sigh and watch in wonder at such beautifully appointed and fast-moving trains. The amazing snowy landscape and mountains flashing by are a bonus. Thanks for posting!
Forgot poor somewhere in there. It's not like we can't go to Japan.
(Not saying the situation is your fault. Just saying it's not like we can't go.)
@@x808drifter I don’t think his point was not being able to experience Japanese trains but rather how antiquated American trains are. I mean have you ridden one? It looks like nothing has changed from 70s…and it seems only the poor people ride the long distance trains in the US. The bedding/seat covers are filthy AF and look extremely unhygienic also. They don’t maintain the train well either. I think these aspects he meant as disappointing.
なぜ、新大陸を侵略してるんだ。
the beginning scene is so epic! One heavy-duty machine under the harsh weather condition 🚝❄
Been on E5/E6s numerous times. Once was on a combined E5/E6 during an icy Winter storm just south of Morioka when a sheet of rhime ice detached and slammed back against the rail car (was in the Green car) body while we were at 320 kph. Sounded like an explosion and the emergency systems worked quickly to bring us to an emergency stop. After 75 minutes, two inspections and apologies by JR staff for the delay we declared OK and the journey resumed.
What a beautiful train! 😍
Those trains are amazing and spotless.
And here in Canada people say that we can't build high speed rail because of the weather... sure
In my country a few snow flakes creates chaos. Even for our slow trains.
Trains that run on time in bad weather and are blazing fast! I remember my Dad who once said that when he was young trains in Germany were slow but at least punctual. I love Japanese technology!
Vande Bharat train in India always stopped due to cattles on the track
In New York we do not have high speed trains and if there is word of incoming snow everything gets shut down and public transportation gets you stranded trying to get to work and back home. On a sunny day we are lucky to see a train hit 35miles(50km) per hour.
It's funny how in the states and Canada, with infinitely more space available and VASTLY greater distances to travel, train travel is no different than it was in the 1950s.
That is the problem. Trains can't compete with air and the railways is privately owned, which means it's gonna suck massively. Freight train however is still king. Train travel simply suits denser population better. The US hardly has any electrified rail network. In India 80% is electrified, and in Japan the bullet train gets its power from nuclear power plants!
@@srinitaaigaura Japan is not as densely populated as you think. Japan is roughly twice the size of UK and twice the population of UK, and only metro areas of Japan are densely populated. Other areas of Japan are not. Yet Japan always had trains even in rural areas. Not cars but trains. Trains aren’t really owned private in Japan. They’re closely monitored by the ministry of transportations in Japan actually and they can’t raise any fees as they please as it significantly affects the population. The thing about Japan is that it has been running bullet trains from 50s and 60s. US and Canada also have high speed trains but they all look like regular Japanese trains from 70s. If you have ridden any high speed trains in the US you would know it’s very bad. Gray, unhygienic and dirty. And only the poor seem to prefer to ride such outdated trains in the US as you would need a car once you get off from the station. The train system hasn’t developed in North America. I mean it’s the region of the world where the federal government can’t even invest in broken bridges and roads, such simple infrastructures. They rather fund military industrial complex and winning the war. How many billions US “gave” to Ukraine?! 100+ billions. Yeah that’s their focus it seems.
@@KittenBowl1 They fund military industrial complex, yes, but did not win many wars.
Train travel is far worse than it was in the 50's.
@@srinitaaigauraalways giving the same excuses.
I’m in Canada. Our trains go as fast as sashimi covered in peanut butter on a sandy beach.
Exhilarating stuff. What beautiful stations.
The train is very cool. But that's know I could feel it freezing. I hope you able to stay warm during that and not slip and slide and fell down. Great video though I really enjoyed it
best trains of the world in Japan thank you!
I love trains and grew up in a semi rural area. The snow covered picturesque towns are very beautiful.
雪の静かな発車、轟音の320km/h、堺アナはひたすらエモいです。ありがとうございます。
Love that it's quiet and pleasant and non-stressful. Quite unlike the Eurostar.
316 km/hr is almost 200 mph! Amazing technology! I wonder if the air friction on the nose of that train melted all the ice? The outside of that train looked shiny clean after that trip.
Amazing japanes technology 👍
very cool footage
Nice train.
Awesome.
Amazing 🤩 Japan
Watching you from London England 🏴 🇬🇧
I stayed in tokyo 6 yrs ago and just rode the shinkansen every morning north and south......so fricking cool!!!
Excellent video. Thanks for sharing. Also, seeing Akita is a bit of a bonus for me, as years ago, I heard one of their AM radio stations from here in Melbourne Australia. Incidentally, there is certainly plenty of snow there.
Wooo..320kmph nice to see Japanese bullet train ❤️woo so cool love form india
Awesome. Thank you.
Living in the uk if we have a slight snow the country grinds to a halt how i envy the Japanese rail system
I've heard even wet leaves on the track can cause chaos to the passengers! Shocking!!
That looks like a real awesome train to ride on!! FAST!!
以前、シベリア鉄道が全天候型新幹線に置き換わる話が出てましたね。
Awesome! Thanks for the video. Regards from Brazil.
Really enjoyed the video both inside and outside of such a sleek incredibly fast and smooth ride. It was nice to see the countryside too when the train was throttled back to 130.
Nice job. Thank you
Thank you for yet another fantastic video!
At this moment, I was in Kyoto and it also snowed heavily, which is surprising.
You mean it snowed in the middle of winter? That’s unbelievable!
@@never4ever386 Kyoto is in the southern half of Japan, so a big snow probably isn't that common
@@counterfit5 I see…. Thank you.
Absolutely amazing how clean the train stations are.
They are used by civilized high IQ people. Unlike third world US
Wow beautiful train...thank you!!! :))
Up to Morioka a romantic train ride through the snowy mountain landscape.
From Morioka to Omiya, what I love most in Japan Railways.
I'm from Poland, but I live in Germany. In Germany trains rushing up to 300km/h, but in the snowly weather speed is limited to 200km/h, so German ICE high-speed trains are permamently delayed in winter :-)
In my homeland - Poland fastest trains run up to 200km/h, so in winter condition speed limiting are not necesery.
In the short time perspective speed will be increased up to 250km/h on the north-south bound from Warsaw to Katowice and Kraków, but I don't think we need speed limiting in bad weather condiions.
Thanks for your video. Greetings.
That was great. Thanks!
Looks beautiful
If this was the UK, there would be no trains running.
Had no idea Japan was so beautiful 😍
I rode that train back in the 90s, both north-line to Awamori-Ken and later south-line to Fouoka from Tokyo. I like how the train slowly and gain accelerates and the tracks are amazing not to add elevate across roads ( Their's no possibility of a car/truck+train accident )
Then in side you have a Japan food/drink beverage lady offering you drinks and snacks.
The train with earthquake proof which is no other countries can provide.
7:50 proper Snowpiercer movie vibes.
If the train stops we all gonna die😅
thanks for sharing! good to see and experience it virtually
The train's name, Komachi, refers to handsome girls in Akita prefecture, by the way.
And in Canada we can't even get a subways running on time
Congratulation. I am from Germany. We dont have this Level of perfection here. Our Train System is a mess.
Lol the U.S. even worse
First thing I thought. Heavy snowfall makes DB scratch their heads and fuck up the time schedule for millions of people. The richest country in the EU cannot even manage their trains wtf
Edit: we also pay our train system some of the smallest money compared to our European countries, Austria pays 3 times as much and Switzerland like 5 times more.
@@energeticstunts993 Look at the bright side, I just saw some amazing prison systems of Germany on DW documentary and a few other German channels here on YT. You guys invest so much on prison system it’s incredible. Prison seemed like paradise compared to American prison system. Reform success rate of criminals is very good in Germany. There are other parts Germany seems to be spending money on. I guess they’ve got to as so many immigrants commit crimes and they can’t even speak German the documentary was pointing out. But honestly too many immigrants in Germany?…I also saw some native Germans suffering in poverty.
Apparently Japan also builds good earthquake proof buildings!
I can’t believe how quiet it is! Trains around here have a plow that runs close to the track, and you put a few thousand tons behind a plow, there’s not much stopping it…
3:10 "The next stop is Omagari. It will change direction at Omagari" WTF? I had to look this up, and it's true. The train pulls into the station at this town, then it pulls back out the way it came, shunts to another track, and just keeps going down the new track! Apparently the seats can rotate on this train if you prefer to continue to face forward? Cool!
This isn't as uncommon as you might think, maybe it doesn't happen in Canada.
@@SKAOG21 It doesn’t happen in North America or South America that’s for sure.
Fascinated as Indian to watch the beauty,speed, technology and for obvious peace & silence 🙂
I really wish to visit Japan one day. It look so clean and beautiful . Unlike here in NY.
Trains and planes are the way to go
Very clean. Well maintained. No graffiti. No gangs walking through the cars bothering passengers and harassing women. Obviously this isn't in an American urban environment.
Clean, Fast, Efficient, Punctual, Modern, Comfortable. What is not to like? Compared to our nonsense system its spectacular!

どんな感じなんだろう!?
サムネがカッコイイですね。
Very neat and clean. Bravo- Japan Railway authorities 👍
Wow so quiet and stable inside
That looks awesome but something goes wrong and everyone is dead or wishes they were .
Just imagine several of these bad boys sprinting across the U.S.
Japan great nation !
Makes a mockery of our rail system especially northern rail, leaves on the line and everything comes to a halt and 3hrs from huddersfield to bradford (15 miles)makes you proud to be british
日本は地震大国…高速鉄道はその速さだけじゃなく安全性が重視されてる…としてもかなり速い
Ultimate technology with speed -Traveling
I hope we get some of these train here in Texas. I would love to ride them.
The platforms of the station are very clean.
I watching this, with spring just around the corner here in Europe. 1 week and spring is here...
Not only do fast trains run normally when deep freezer happens in Japan, birds sing too. Listen @0:37
今年は雪少なくて楽でした❄️
Nice train
"Riding The Fastest Bullet Train On A Winter Day"
Super awesome Bullet Train Journey video on freezing cold and snowing day.
Loved it to the core.
Your new subscriber from India. LIKE 966.
Muy bien, gracias
Would have loved to have seen some aerial footage of it doing 315 in the snow. That would be impressive.
That's real railroading there. One day I will travel to Japan and ride the different trains there, taste the delicious foods there and sightseeing. I know the railroads there are 10 times better than the railroads here in this crooked USA.
The train is sooo clean and tidy...
Simply superb
Wow!! Premo!!
Поражает чистота в Японии и обновление инфраструктуры .Практический нет плохого асфальта.
