A spectacular view of a special steam service arriving
in parallel with a Tokaido Shinkansen & Meitetsu service
as viewed from the Nagoya Skyplaza Restaurant. 17/02/2013.
February was a busy month for new Shinkansen stock
deliveries with the subtly externally different N700A services
entering service with JR Tokai. This set is seen at
Tokyo Station on 18/02/2013.
Also commencing delivery last month were JR East's E6 set which
will be coupled to Tohoku Shinkansen 'E5' sets as far as Morioka,
and continue to Akita on the Akita Shinkansen, which is also known
as a 'Mini-Shinkansen' and before that as sections of the Tazawako &
Ōu Main Lines. This set is seen entering Omiya on 03/02/2013.
