Greetings, Y! I'm a subscriber in the US and I just wanted to thank you for sharing your cab view videos. For some reason I really enjoy virtually rides on Japan's conventional lines. (Bullet trains are kind of boring, I think.) I do have one question: Is there a conventional main line that does not have a tunnel? Before I started watching these cab rides I had no idea how mountainous (and beautiful) Japan is! Cheers from Wisconsin!

Nice to meet you, Andrew! Thank you for always watching my videos. Most of Japan's land area is mountainous, so most railway lines outside of major city suburbs have tunnels. In the past, many local lines also had tracks that avoided mountains, but with the need to reduce travel time and improvements in tunnel excavation technology, new tunnels were dug and the tracks were re-laid in a straight line. Unfortunately, the current situation is that people are more interested in increasing speed than enjoying the scenery.
