Next day was a trip out to Himeji. Shinkansen trains that don't stop there, pass the station at approx. 320km/h. Blink and you'll miss it, as I almost did.
It was then time to go back to Tokyo. So we took the faster connection, Nozomi service N700 covered by our rail pass. Took some photos of other N700s as we were passing some train yard. Arrived at our destination in a Toei Asakusa Line train, and on the way to the hotel found a cheap copy of the original Densha De Go for Playstation I still play it occasionally.
During the last few days we have concentrated on sightseeing so didn't take as many pictures as I'd like to. As a bonus, here's a photo of how I became a Shinkansen driver during one of our visits at Tokyo Station.
Few extra videos that I found on my private YT channel:
NEX Train passing station
Shinkansen trains departing and arriving at a station
15 days wasn't enough, so I went again in 2019. This time on my own and only 4 days, as I was going to a wedding to HK. Will post pics from that trip soon.
Hope you've enjoyed it!
