Japan has the focus on the right things. Some 'Americans' are taking down statues

If the United States wants to deal with China's total of two moves: one, let go of military control over Japan; two, establish diplomatic relations with Taiwan and form a military alliance.

Ist das nicht der neue Zug von Antalya nach Alanya ?

They need to come and build California's since it is going at a snails pace.

Rode many of the maglev trains in China. Amazing experience. Beautiful trains, scenery, great way to travel

Japan does this while we argue about pronoun usage.

EL COVID19 NO VIENE DE CHINA NI DEL NORTE VIENE DE ARRIBA DIOS QUIERE QUE NOS GUARDEMOS EN CASA Y LOS QUE NO... AUMENTARAN LAS CIFRAS

Shinkansen will be stopped before big shake is reached to the truck in big earthquake. This is done by detection system for earthquake. By using this system, there were no victims in Shinkansen in the earthquake of 3.11 2011.

Modern infrastructure... what a concept, maybe America should try it

Snowpiercer

The US does not have anything like this because it’s now a sh*thole country.

This is fake news! Everyone knows that’s an Amtrak MAGA diesel locomotive! ALL ABOARD! PS: Here’s Carter Page on his secret mission

Impressive!

Except for when the earthquake destroys the rail system?

Looks hideous

This is hilarious,Must read!!

すごい

That means it can float in air...

Meanwhile in America

اليابان تغزو العالم

Ok a train. Bfd. We have airplanes for goodness sake. No need to lay down rail and disturb neighborhoods. We need better, modern and accesible airports.

Eso no es nada. En México usamos carbón y tálamos la selva por un capricho de un disque presidente. El único loco con la mano arriba, es el loco que les cuento.

Japan is perfect for a rail system. The islands are long and narrow allowing all points nearby.

You reading this LIRR ?

Your journalism blows goats

California’s bullet-train project faces unprecedented woes. Gov. Newsom needs to get the Japanese to build the train for the state.

This is what Asian countries doing while other countries heavily invested in pointless wars and revolving racism.

America?

Does it protect them from fake news also?

Yet in America We still got traffic😑 and spend millions own roads and gas

Fantastic Australia need transfer of technology to build fast rail network betwee cities and country. . Would create thousands of jobs in many industries and distribute people more to regions would secure future Australia population growth, reduce city congestion.

In the meanwhile in the US

Can an earthquake still open? Who dares to ride during an earthquake?

I've been on a couple of the bullet trains in Japan, and they are incredible. It's crazy to be hiking through the woods and then out of nowhere this huge train goes flying by at 250mph. Also, the Ekiban (boxes of food you take on the train) was... interesting. Interesting stuff

....in the US. You can have banks, inclines etc and that speed. The US choose the auto industry over rail in the early 50’s and to make it like Japan would cost trillions. You have to move and relocate residents, buy, sell land it’s just Not feasible for the US.

wow...

BRAVO, Japan! You're creating something, while our youth are intent on tearing down our country.

I wanted this to say “transport passengers to the future...” but oh well. I wouldn’t be surprised if Japan beats the U.S. with time traveling first

Bullet trains from the east coast to the west coast, with limited stops....STILL WOULD TAKE FOREVER!

Meanwhile, in the US...

Just like their nuclear reactors too

Japan getting on with it! The west crying about fake tan.

Amazing!!!

Rich americans cant afford to fund infrastructure. Bankers are allowed to extort too much...

Meanwhile in the UK 'train delayed due to leaves on the line' is still a thing

疯了疯了,真这么干要脱轨。

Finally, interesting news!

Meanwhile, on the Acela from NYC to DC. Can barely handle sun, rain or snow. An earthquake? America is such a scam.

You are trying to say there is forever an earthquake in japan.

Poor us in the UK.Our rail lines buckle after long spells of sunshine or when the weather becomes too cold

US where are we? Our tp system sucks

Faster than Chinese HSR?

Lmao

Great yar

Looks like a platypus. ❤
