Very scenic and at the same time an urban line. I don't know particular this train type, but you can hear the sound of an electric motor in the car while sitting on your seat. So, my guess is that an independent electric motor is installed on each wheel of the car, just like the same technical implementation as the Shinkansen has. If the engine was only in the locomotive, you wouldn't be able to hear it from that far away, am I right? Thank you so much for the great video that provided us a journey through beautiful landscapes all the way to Tokyo 😊 Great job! 👍 Looking forward to the next video. All the best 💜 Greetings from Gran Canaria 🌴Ciao! 👋

This train was called the 353 series, and was made at a lower cost than the Shinkansen because it required the scrapping of previously running trains and mass production. As you may have noticed, out of the 12-car train, 8 cars are equipped with motors because there are many uphill sections. This motor becomes a generator when going downhill, and the generated electricity is returned to the overhead wire and used to power other vehicles. It is designed with energy savings in mind when braking force is generated. The reason why the sound is loud is because the budget was limited, so the soundproofing under the floor was not as good as on the Shinkansen. If you want to make a vehicle with as much comfort as you want, you can do it, but it seems difficult to do so because you have to raise the price significantly. So I think it's annoying for a new limited express train. From Chigasaki City, Japan.

@@takayukisorimachi7725 Thank you for the great clarification. It's kinda interesting that this train has a so-called KERS that uses the kinetic energy generated when braking. 返信ありがとうございます。とても感謝しています!
