    Shinkansen is a must-ride on the first trip to Japan. It’s an experience not to be missed. But after that, the slow train becomes the must-do. You can take in so much more of the Japan around you.

    I absolutely love this GO! series in Shodoshima. Mr. Sasano said it best elsewhere, but - *I love it when you travel outside of the metropolitan areas to the rural areas where the soul of Japan can really be felt and experienced.*
    I’ll never understand why the Tōkyō videos get the views. *THIS* is where it’s at! (Obvious exceptions made for anywhere my buddy PvG makes a special appearance)

    I miss those days when I lived in Kaita-cho. I walked to Kaitaichi elementary school along Route 2 every day crossing Kure-line.
    There used to be a sleeper train called Aki running from Hiroshima to Tokyo via Kure-line. I once got on the train to visit my uncle who had been running an izakaya at Koenji Tokyo.

    John, I have been a bit of a train otaku ever since my great uncle let me ride with him for about 16 km in the engine of the train he was driving in 1962. NHK has a series on trains in their stream that isn't bad.

    im guessing this line is the one that takes you to the Kure station for the naval museum? im planning for a visit to Kure city for the Yamato museum.
    with you being a "trainer" do you ever wonder where the older line splits along the routes led to back in the day? you see a few discontinued line splits into the brush that arent in service. makes you wonder where they lead to...
    you can never get away from those birds cant you?? LOL.

    Seems like I keep missing the live live streams but enjoying the train ride. Reminds me of the train from Hiroshima to the port location for transferring to the ferry to Miyajima. Rabbit Island next? Hope we get to see the exhibits inside the Poison Gas Museum. Apparently 80,000 Chinese were victims of the poison gas produced there despite Japan having signed on to the accords prior to World War II agreeing not to make chemical weapons. Also curious if the curator of the museum who was a teenager working in the secret factories there is still alive. He would compare the actions on Rabbit Island to the lives lost in the Hiroshima bombing as he advocated for peace.
