October 1st 2024 marks the 60th anniversary of the opening of the Tokaido Shinkansen, the world’s first high speed line.
To celebrate, I have created a few new posts for my blog – https://trainstobeyond.com/
The main one is about a trip I made along the line recently, getting off at all the original stations – https://trainstobeyond.com/2024/09/04/2024-japan-bullet-at-60/
Also included is an attempt at a brief history of how the line came about - https://trainstobeyond.com/the-new-tokaido-line/
A bit on the history of the timetables - https://trainstobeyond.com/tokaido-shinkansen-timetable/
And a very rough overview of the fleet history - https://trainstobeyond.com/fleet-history/
Hope someone finds this interesting.
Feedback, especially corrections, is always more than welcome !
Either here or via the contact page on the blog itself.
Best Wishes
