Beautiful countryside. Quick little note. IF I might...I'd like to see little things like which town you are going through. How the heck long are those tunnels especially that LONG one at 18:00. I got claustrophobic just watching it. Not speaking but a little subtitle. Well ya got there...now what? Heck of a layover at the 41:00 mark. About 22 minutes or so? Go get something to eat, hit the local brothel and back in time to catch the One O Two. Just kidding. Looked like it was waiting for the connecting trains. Just me I know but I like that sort of thing.

51:39 Okay, the train stopped at the station but it is a DMU and definitely running to a limited stops *express* timetable while the single car rail motor we're seeing is an all-stops commuter service, and *NOT* an express!
From 41:25 to 51:30 and from 52:19 to 1:02:05, then 1:02: 12 to 1:03:15 could've been cut out as there was absolutely nothing happening between this rail motor's arrival at this station and the arrival of the first DMU, then the arrival and departure of the DMU in the opposite direction.

At 51:12 a service will pass through this station without stopping. That service *IS* what this service *IS NOT!* That passing train is an *EXPRESS SERVICE WITH ONLY LIMITED STOPS* where this rail motor has stopped at *EVERY* station thus far, and will stop at *EVERY* station for the rest of the trip.

I'd also cut out the sequence of passing through long tunnels, cut from just after entering to just before exiting, then use a five-second fade or centre-wipe transition effect.

Does anyone happen to know what the robot says twice on every station? It sounds like "deriken o tori kudasai", which is gibberish. There's no such word as "deriken" and if it really were a "kudasai", it would be "totte", not "tori". {Update: I has been explained to me that it's "seiriken" or numbered ticket.}

I'm interested in the age of this line. The number of tunnels suggests construction in late 20th Century. Was it constructed for high speed alignment?
@Ynysmydwr4 жыл бұрын
The line was opened in December 1994 and, yes, it was designed to be a high-grade railway with an operational speed of 130 km/h, which is certainly high-speed for the narrow gauge (1067 mm). The minimum radius of its curves is 260 m and Shitozaka tunnel, the line's longest, measures 5,592 m from portal to portal. The very low number of level crossings is also unusual for a narrow-gauge line in Japan. P.S. Since writing the above, I've discovered a very interesting film -- at www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/ondemand/video/2049075/ -- which explains fully the history of the line, how it was built, almost closed before it was completed, before finally being revived and finished to enable the operation of today's very successful high-speed service.

@@Ynysmydwr To put this into perspective, the newest and longest of the Standedge Tunnel bores (opened 1894) is 4883m long, Totley Tunnel (opened 1893) is 5700m long, and the Severn Tunnel (opened 1886) is 7008m long. These are still the longest "conventional railway" tunnels in current use in Britain. As is typical for tunnels, they are all almost straight. Though not in railway use any more, the Woodhead Tunnel's longest and newest bore (opened 1954) is 4888m long, and the older ones (opened 1845 and 1852) are 4840m long. Shitozaka Tunnel thus stands level with some considerable historical achievements. I've noticed that Japanese railways tend to have a lot of tunnels regardless of age, even ignoring cases where underground railways were installed within major cities due to the practical impossibility of large-scale surface construction. Most of them are short bores to get through an inconvenient prominence without a lengthy and equally inconvenient detour. But there are also some lines that use a lot of relatively long tunnels to find their way through largely uninhabited mountain country, passing from one convenient river valley to another but cutting through a lot of small ones on the way. The Takayama (opened 1934) and Dosan (opened as far as Kochi in 1935) lines are classic examples of this. Possibly the outbreaks into small valleys are deliberate to avoid the need to build many ventilation shafts, steam traction still being the norm in those days.

Yes. If this is like other local train services I've travelled on in Japan, at all but major, staffed stations alighting passengers pay the driver (or show him their pre-paid ticket / pass) as they get off.
Liked the video. One thing bothered me. I wish the driver had turned off that windshield wiper. It just kept going even when the rain stopped. Finally, the thing was turned off. I'd much rather have enjoyed the view and not see the wiper crossing a dry window.

This service on what would be a single-car rail motor(judging by those it has passed thus far, and that on the rail next to this unit), is *CERTAINLY NOT* an Express service as it has stopped at every station thus far. Express services have only limited stops and will pass through various other stations.
@Kromaatikse2 жыл бұрын
"Express" is in the name of the operating company, which is why it appears in the video title. This indeed a "local" service on the line, hence the many stops and some long pauses.

@@neilforbes416 The company name doubtless refers to the fact that the line they operate is built (using relatively modern construction techniques) for faster services than most cross-mountain routes in Japan. The line speed is 130kph (as fast as any other narrow-gauge line in Japan), and the restrictions caused by sharp curves and pointwork are comparatively slight. This capacity for speed is mainly used by the express services ("tokkyuu") which run on the line; the "Super Hakuto" is operated by Chizu Express and the "Super Inaba" by JR West. The local services would be described at stations as "ordinary trains" ("futsuu"), using the standard terminology which causes no confusion to travellers. Due to the provision of large standing areas, local trains are not permitted to run as fast as trains with full seating arrangements, and especially tilting trains, as both the "Super Hakuto" and "Super Inaba" are. However, the gentle curves allow local trains to run at their maximum available speed (typically 100kph) between each stop, which is still faster than on many older lines, especially those originally built pre-war.

@@Kromaatikse It isn't so much the condition of the track, nor the speed at which the train travels. It's how many stops are made in the course of the journey. Any train running "express" services will only stop at the more important stations serving larger towns and cities on the line while the smaller stations that serve small villages will be passed through.

@@neilforbes416 You completely miss the point. The company is named for the *line* it manages, which is *capable of supporting* express trains, and actually does so. This is not false advertising. Take a look at the final seconds of the video, with exterior shots of the local train we're riding in - not a single hint of the word "express" on it. It's just a railcar. Nobody would be confused into getting on this, thinking it was the express. This is not false advertising. THIS IS NOT FALSE ADVERTISING!
