TOKYO -- Shinkansen bullet trains are vital transport links in Japan. Some 900,000 people ride shinkansen trains every day. The high-speed railways, which allow passengers to travel comfortably, safely and on time at up to 300kph are the pride of Japan.
The shinkansen is attracting the world's attention, especially their reputation for safety and comfort and their quick braking and low vibration even at high speeds. The high-speed railways are one of the primary infrastructure exports the government is promoting around the world.
