Product Description
In January 2027, the popular Shinkansen train, the 923 series T5 formation known as "Doctor Yellow," and the 500 series Shinkansen will be retired one after another.
This book focuses on two popular Shinkansen train models that are nearing retirement.
In the "Doctor Yellow" segment, we trace the lineage of successive Shinkansen comprehensive electric track test trains that have continued since the JNR (Japanese National Railways) era. We also introduce the currently operating 923 series, including its interior and inspection system, which are rarely seen by the public, along with valuable press photos from when it was newly manufactured.
For the 500 series, we will trace the development history starting with the high-speed test train [WIN350], which was developed with 350 km/h operation in mind.
Furthermore, we look back at its journey, from its spectacular debut as the Nozomi to its current Kodama service after being converted to an 8-car formation, with a wealth of photographs.
Furthermore, the customary reader-submitted photos are featured in a powerful layout that takes full advantage of the large format.
You can thoroughly enjoy the magnificent sight of both vehicles as they raced through various locations.
