Is there something inside the only remaining overnight train in Japan that makes tourists say, ‘It’s wasted not going’?

This is a special train that still exists today and attracts the attention of many tourists every time they come to the country of the rising sun.
Around the 60s of the last century, in the booming economy of Japan, a series of railroads appeared to serve the needs of Japanese people to travel and trade. The first modern railway line was inaugurated by the Japanese in 1964. Then a series of overnight trains with comfortable accommodations were put into operation, serving millions of passengers traveling along Phu. Tang.

Indeed, before high-speed trains came into existence, there was a time when overnight trains were popular across Japan. The elite in this country as well as tourists love to enjoy the overnight trip on the comfortable and luxurious ships. It was still dark when stepping on the train, but when you woke up, you were able to breathe the air in a faraway place. However, today, because of the busy life that people often choose short flights or buses to travel instead of spending nights as before. That is the reason why “overnight train” is almost “dead” in Japan. According to Japan Guide, by 2016, only the Sunrise Express (roughly translated: Sunrise Express Train) is still absorbed in ice in the night, until the sun rises, passengers wake up, the train will just enter the station. . And now, it becomes “fun” for tourists who want to explore the country of the rising sun in a special way.

Sunrise Express consists of 14 cars running from Tokyo Station, but to Okayama Station it will be split into 2 small trains, 7 cars each. These are Sunrise Seto and Sunrise Izumo. The Sunrise Seto train runs back to Takamatsu, while its “twin sister” – the Sunrise Izumo – runs towards Izumoshi. On the return journey, the two groups still run separately until they meet again at the intersection of Okayama, they will “become one” and head towards Tokyo.
