    I love how people on the station are waving as the train goes by. It seems like such a small gesture, but it's really heartwarming in so many ways. Such hospitality and gesture of kindness doesn't exist where I'm from, so it always warms me up when I do see it happen. This was an amazing video, I had a lot of fun watching!

    First of all, you have taught me something. My youngest son and I spent the night in New Orleans last week. As we were leaving our room, without realizing it, I thanked the room for a wonderful stay! Second, I absolutely love your channel. I have binge watched almost every one. America's ferry's, trains, and busses are nothing like what I have seen on your channel. Added to my Bucket List is going to Japan and experiencing some of these amazing things! ❤️

    The most impressive part is I think this is the first long distance route like this that seems to have something at every stop. Here in usa, they'll only stop at each station for 5 minutes, but over there it seems like they have the time to get off and enjoy whatever local business came to the station that day! Seems so much more fun.
