Many of you may want to ride on one of the fastest train in the world. A 16-car train runs as fast as 280km/h (170mph) as often as every 3 to 10 minutes. If you fly into Tokyo, Nagoya, or another city, a Shinkansen train will be the most convenient way to travel to Osaka. A 2.5-hour train ride will take you from Tokyo to Osaka in the distance a B747 flight takes one hour. Another good thing of the train is that it connects the centers of cities.
