Long live Japan. I am an Indian. I respect Japanese for their uprightness, sincerity, dedication, discipline and honesty.. Something which is not there in my country..
Even thousand years will not be enough to be like Japan
Japanese is pure mixture of discipline,dedication and diligence
Great respect to Japanese people
India is nothing infront of Japan
हो गयी बकवास शुरू,हम बेहतर करने की बजाये बेवकूफो की तरह blame करेगे,तो बेहतर काम नही कर पाएंगे।बेवकूफ blame करते और समझदार solution निकलते है,यही फर्क है,कामयाब और बेवकूफ में।
@John F Drink that koolaid John, drink it.
@Mario india is Changing tremendously ! they are growing very fast , faster than china . in fact the e5 series shown here will start operation in india by 2022. construction has begun !
And generous allowances offerred to them by the west after the war
Superior Japanese technology and maintenance! And, after billions of passengers since 1964---not one fatality. NOT ONE. Absolutely brilliant...
The Shinkansen has a good record, but there was a serious accident in Amagasaki in 2005 with 107 fatalities although that was believed to be driver error.
@@MervynPartin That wasn't a shinkansen but a commuter train. There's considerably more accidents on those.
@@hammerfalls9992 Yes, I was aware of it being a commuter train (some of which I have used in Japan), but my comment was not aimed at the Shinkansen itself, but the words "superior Japanese technology and maintenance" which may be mostly good, but has produced some poor results in a few instances (think of IET on the GWR or if you have ever worked on Japanese ship some of the machinery leaves a lot to be desired). In other words, no one is perfect!
@@hammerfalls9992 not more than India though
@@MervynPartin the class 800s are put together here though so its likely flaws are down to the British workforce
310 Kph on the Shinkansen is as smooth as glass with very little sensation of speed until you enter a tunnel. If a Shinkensen is a minute late it's a news story in Japan. You can literally set your watch by the arrival and departure of the trains. The cars are spotless, inside and out, and the bathrooms are clean and spacious. If we had that kind of train service in the U.S. the airlines with their tiny seats, "go f_ _ _ _ yourself" attitudes, surcharge after surcharge, and peanuts if your lucky, would either go belly up, or learn what customer service means.
I'd love to see nationwide train service like this. Crossing the country in 10 hours by comfy train beats cramming into an airplane for a 6 hour ride hands-down. Monstrously expensive to build and run though; we've got a lot more ground to cover in the States than they do in Japan. And I can't say whether I would worry more if a private corporation tried to do it or our government did. Either way it probably wouldn't match the high standard set by the Shinkansen.
It's the same cost per mile bro
Sure, with MANY more miles to cover than in Japan.
I remember the days of peanuts....I didn’t realize it was such a privilege back then. I am gleeful every time an American airline goes belly up.
Japan is about the size of California.
Even the micrometer carries the words 'Made in Japan' Says it all, really. Impressive stuff!!
I can remember back when anything that had "Made in Japan" stamped on it was immediately dismissed as "Junk" or "Worthless". Japan has come a long way since then
@@bibekanandahansda2926 it was before ww2 and several years after ww2 back when japan product considered as second grade copies of the west. And the japanese started making it better than the west
Almost every engineer and machinist in America has at least one pair of Mitutoyo calipers.
Yes I too noticed that.
Why does a Japanese micrometer used by Japanese machinists in a Japanese shop say MADE IN JAPAN written in English?
SEAN
Their commitment to safety warms my heart.
JAPAN, The land of PERFECTION !!! It either be 100% or call it a failure.... Lovely !!
born US citizen i am but i wish i could experience this level of dedication and safety in my country these people make me feel small and left behind
I am so proud of Japan for such quality work with such precision so perfect. That is being a GREAT HUMAN--- I am so sick of so many in the world but You are great !
Allahu Akbar
@John F ....Is it scary in Mommies Basement?
@@TokyoHouse Asshole!
Oh okay Made in USA

What a great documentary, such a careful description of the care needed to keep these precision trains running.

Airplane is the safest transportation in the world? No, the Shinkansen is.
This is devotion of Japanese towards their work...
If you are wondering why the trains have those strange shaped noses, it is to reduce aerodynamic shocks when entering and exiting tunnels at high speed.
Thumbs up to Japan for making these great machines..!
A bow to great Japanese engineering

Futuristic innovations which is maintained with precision accuracy and diligence.
Reallly great maintenance
God father of bullet train technology...keep supporting us ...India ❤️ japan
That ultrasound scanner, on a larger scale of course, is what the U. S. needs for boiler inspections on excursion steam locomotives. FRA boiler inspections are a pain, but imagine cutting the time for that from 2 years to a weekend.
YES! Metric measurements the rest of the world can understand!
You achieve this level of superior dedication when people come before profit. In America we would have sub-contracted maintenance to the cheapest bidder.
bitter? Do you even grammar?
@@eduardosampoia5480 Go back to Mexico where you belong
@@Gluluman I'm a grammar nazi...not out of Mexico.
Japan should be a role model for every country
I was in Japan, the Shinkansen is AMAZING!!!!
These huge cost of maintenances and replacements of various parts and supporting facilities causes the high price of shinkanses service. Actually it is pretty simple, good service = high price. It is a simple math... So, you can't expect these type of trains runs with subsidize from the government, as a part of public service obligation. Except, for the local train or some suburb service, that's another thing.
And their vehicles are very well made also. Purchased my first Toyota in 1967 after being VERY disappointed in Detroit products. No comparison.

I just bought a toyota recently. looked at the label inside the door... made in U.S.A. Very well designed in japan and very well assembled in USA. Looked inside my fathers Dodge? hecho en Mexico, and has been having issues since it was purchased
The Japanese are indeed the benchmark of Safety and Quality.
A role model for quality engineering
You can ride the Shinkansen safely and comfortably by ensuring safety by following the carefully crafted Shinkansen maintenance and inspection rules every time.
very nice done the right way and worth the cost, saves billions of gallons of oil too...
It also creates much job.
That 25K voltage come from oil burned to generate LOL.
@@williamsaunders8047 Not really. Japan uses Nuclear energy and geothermal energy.
@@jannadrielcervo7753
Spent Nuclear is also a waste. Instead, They should energize the line by having office people in each city along the line, pedaling power generating stationary bikes while at work.
Japanese technology shinkansen
The world's most ranked technical laborer
intriguing. top engineering and meticulous work ethic !
Land Of Technology , Where Accuracy
Matters the MOST ! 👌
And they say, India is planning to install a Japanese Bullet train line. I don't think the Japanese will allow their first fatality to be overseas.
INDIA IS THE PANTRY TO THE MODERN WORLD .
@Nara Fire may be commenting on other countries efforts, really Indian Railways punctuality had gone up to almost 85 percent in southern railway, impressive stuff
I would be interested to see what the profitability of these trains are. With the religious maintenance of the trains and the lines themselves the upkeep has to be seriously costly. In the US the CEO’s would never spend so much on maintenance if they could avoid it. All they care is increased shareholder values. Just look at the US Airline industry,they go to extremes to avoid maintenance costs. Outsourcing to low wage countries,spreading out maintenance intervals to the minimum the manufacturers and the FAA will allow.
awesome engineering.
Salute for hard working.. I love Japan. Love from India.
India can have japan hi- sp train, The question is can they maintain the same level maintenance service after one year later.
wow even in the simple things, Japanese are very meticulous, very punctual, very dedicated, long live Japan
which Pinoys must adopt these work ethics even in the simplest things
Love from Philippines
Amazing job. They are very concerned about safety
Japanese people and also Shinkansen is really great.I very much love Japan and Japanese.
Thank you soooo much for uploading this! Please upload more videos like this if possible!
trainsforever8 mail me m
Japanese are a cut above the rest.
Great respect to them.
3000 workers each night for just 1 section of the track maintenance.... the cost is huge!
This feat is a proof of Japan's national character. Patriotism, honesty are dominant traits of Japan's national character that helped it to overcome natural and human induced disasters and rebuild the nation.
Better pay a bit more for the safety than being dead.
Air liner companies proved it.
When I was in the Navy, long ago, I was on a local train from Yokosuka to Tokyo. We kept passing the same bullet train. I asked someone why. It was on a maintenance run. I thought for awhile maybe the local was faster.
Shinkansen, best in the world !!
amtrak? lmao. have fun w/ the shitty acela too
@@noob.168 noob train
In America, we hire union workers who read at a 2nd grade to maintenance our trains. We also run trains until the crash and then we still do nothing about it. In America, we spend more money to preserve steam engines that are rarely useful instead maintaining the daily used trains...
MaddoxInc :WHY? The reason??
Trains Suck Man...It's really just riding the Bus....
GET RID OF UNIONS
THEY COST TOO MUCH
FOR THE QUALITY OF THE
WORK THEY DO!!!!!!!!
What? No they don't.
Someone said long time ago travel to future is possible and real! Just travel to Japan.😁👍
Precision and dedication, i always found these two key elements in japanese engineering, it's wonderfull and i'm impressed... 🙏
Awesome! So much effort and dedication from the engineers. 👏
Impressive, but this is Japan.
999 level
Very impressive.. Japan is different..
Japanese people have discipline in there DNA 😎😎😎
Japan people brilliant in Asia.
Thank you engr255.
meticulous maintenace=perfect performance
That prevent.. so amazing
I always feel safe riding on train in Japan no matter how fast they run, that is safety issue never crosses my mind.
OK.... You guys need to come here and teach how things are done when you want "em done right!... That is some level of professionalism, here!
Wow! Respect from Morocco
What makes Shinkansen special is not a train nor a operation system. Maintenance and education system based on Japanese ethics do.
Our New York City subways and Long Island trains are garbage trucks that run on rail lines.
Japanese are great at health and saftey
We appreciate our having Japan as an ally. Wish the US wasn't in such a mess as of late so we could offer our friends in the region some sense of security. Lived though the Depression, World War II and everything since and can't believe how far the leadership of this country has deteriorated. There isn't anything to the Donald. He thinks he is the star of yet another reality show. He has given the far right tacit approval to do whatever they can to disrupt an already fracture society. Again, I can't believe we are in such a wretched state of chaos in the federal government. At least the state and local governments are functioning.BAH HUMBUG Washington, bah humbug.
Ojo Felix NM our allies need to pay a fair share,
@@ojofelixnm3608 Found the moron in the comment section.
4:45 wheel continually rolls. So, it will wear & surface aligns. When rail will align.
Its alot harder than the wheel, i just machined those wheels couple days ago at work. Wheels are just S355 Structural steel.
And if you didnt realize the train is travelling while the rail is not, so use your head a bit.
@@KehusQ : thank you. I know that wheel surface will be subjected to more wear than rail as it repeatedly comes into contact with long rail which runs for kms. But I am interested in wear rate & replacement of rail also (may be in years).
In finland, all the rails and tracks get inspected every year. They upkeep rsils by welding and/or grinding them regurarly to keep the shape. They dont really deform at all. And ultrasound inspection shows if theres any structural damage, which means the rail needs to gets replaced.
Excellent experience
Wide enough to move to sleep, two containers. Lift to carry, lift to change the wheels, two heads the worm, big and bigger.
Everything is made in Japan even the measuring device. In the US we can't even make a dish rag. All we make is websites. SiliCon valley.
nice documentary :)
Great Engineer. Oh! Bullet trains.... Please come to Thailand.

Every time the wheels go in for maintenance the trains loose speed due to loss of diameter. How do they compensate?
Hi,
Many thanks for the upload, any other maintenance videos of these pretty special train would be most welcome.
Take care and I have subbed so will be checking your channel for more videos.

So are the track rails not crowned like American trains to counter differential of a solid axle? Or did they just ignore this for the sake of highlighting reprofiling the wheels?
Great engineering Great Japan...
Japan, the best!!
Does it still exist after Fukashima?
The Japanese actually wanted to sell these trains to the U.S. but the Govt didn't want to buy them
Amazing
Eye-opened
Considering that Indian Railway is much bigger, carries three times more people than its rated capacity, yet performs safely and adequately, at prices that may put corporate accountants in to a coma, is a feat that many do not know. We may not be the fastest, but have a network other countries can only dream of. Comparatively, Accident rates are very low too. And yes, did I mention, the food is much better, fresher than the airline and cost five times less?
INDIA !!! -- THE PANTRY OF THE MODERN WORLD.
Really interesting. Thank you!
3rd hand japanese car > brand new chinese car
How do you conclude that?
Take a look at the latest Chinese highspeed trains, they are way much better and advance than the Japanese trains.
Not a single high speed rail in the entire US.......pathetic. California will be the first state to accomplish this , hopefully.
China always steals german inventions like the Transrapid or Daimler clone
it was bought， not stolen
superior people
in japan Why not digital slide calipers?
Nothing is more accurate than mechanical micrometer.
Do the bullet trains retire?
I wonder; Are they still doing the same thing?
Comprehensive people,worker and government.
One question. Why every Shinkansen unit has a dirty roof (???). Is washing the roof in the unit is such a problem? Each train carries a ton of "debris" on roof ....
Probably no problem. Maybe a little bit larger drag coefficient (C_D value, although it mainly comes from a friction between flowing air and a fuselage that has stain). But it can be easily overcame by powerful motors. If the clean roof is pursued, the car must be washed every day and it cost a lot. Money for such cleaning is invested in rigid maintenance, I guess.
I did not mean to wash the roof every day. It can be 3-4 times a year. I understand that the train's body is cleaned every day and very well. Thanks for the reply ;-)

The safest spot in Japan in an earthquake - shinkansen
It's, essentially, an airliner on rails.
i know I shouldn’t be saying this but after seeing this kind of perfection i think i born in wrong country ☹️
Shinkasnsen does NOT mean Bullet train! That is what foreigners (english speaking mostly) always get wrong no matter tv shows or tourists. It simply means highspeed rail.
The first generation of Shinkansen were given the name "Bullet Train," but this name is not used so much nowadays. "Shinkansen" has become an English word.
Shinkansen (新幹線): 新 (Shin) means “new” and 幹線 (Kan Sen) means “trunk line”.
The name "Bullet Train" is the English translation of the Japanese word dangan ressha (弾丸列車), which was the name given to the project while it was being made in the 1940s. Nowadays, the trains are called Shinkansen trains. The name Shinkansen means "New Trunk Line". The trains are called "Super Expresses".
So Wonderful
I like that guy's boots.
at 01::44 confirming that the power is off
what if the power was ON?
would he be fried?
Not if he follows the SOP !
Great show, but how wasn't this created in widescreen?
they ride on the radius of the wheel...interesting
Nice work
Indian Railways engineers and bosses should take lessons from Japanese level of dedication, commitment and progressive attitude if India has ever to see improvements.
Absolutely true bro and they should learn how to bring trains on time too.
Wonderful.
