- The only Double-decker Shinkansen E4 model finished the run.
Japanese rail fans are regretting this abolishment.
I went to Echigo-Yuzawa in Nigata prefecture and returned to Tokyo by 'Max TANIGAWA' at Green Car.
Please enjoy watching the trip of the final Double-decker Shinkansen.

I would personally buy a 8 car set from JR to have it shipped overseas and setup on a display track here in America where I live to honor this legendary train. Thank you for your service E4, you will always be in our hearts.
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment !! I love E4 model.
in January 2018 coming back to Tokyo from Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto I've decided to get off at Omiya and hop on a MAX TOKI for the rest of the journey to Tokyo. Little did I know it would be my last chance to ride the double decker... Now I'm so glad I did that.
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment !
I loved double decker too.
Everything about this trains shouts 90's Japan and I love it. I really hope we will get another bilevel Shinkansen anytime (soonish).
Thank you very much for watching and nice comment 😃I also hope for the revival of the double-decker Shinkansen
Amazing, twenty four years old and it looks brand new. These trains run every 15min, 30 min, hour or couple of hours? Where are the people? You know I dont care for crowds but.... Are too many trains running and the people are spread out? You must know the good time to get on. They have to be busier before and after businesses open and close? Thank you and a big thank you to MAX!
Thank you so much for your comment.
Joetsu Shinkansen run almost every 30 minutes.
Many extra Max ran final 2 weeks. I was lucky to get on vacant Max.
👋😁👍
🙂👍
I wonder why double decker trains like this are no longer made. It seems to me that these would be a much more efficient option than standard single floor configurations.
Thank you so much for your comment !! This Double decker Shinkansen is a little bit old, so it can't run at high speed.
Current Shinkansen is needed more than 320km/h speed. But I love double decker and expect new model.
@@JapanTravelTips2021 Oh, I see. I guess it does make sense that heavier trains can’t run as fast.
@@CJWJR This double decker was made mainly for many commuters to Tokyo because this has big capacity. But this demand disappeared several years ago.
I viewed this again and wanted to ask you what is in the long corridor, is there private cabins in there or something?
Thank you for your question
This is double decker Shinkansen so mechanical equipments are placed there because there is no other space
@@JapanTravelTips2021 thank you for your reply.
Is this a thank you Max, for our Max Verstappen?😂
What Will they do with the discontinued train? 🤔
Thank so much for your question. Unfortunately they will be dismantled😔
The interior is somewhat unpleasant. Those greyish corridors are depressing , it all feels like a coffin on rails.
Thank you so much for watching. This shinkansen was old type
What train's name that replace max now?
Thank you so much for your question. The previous name is 'Max Toki' or 'Max Tanigawa' but the current name is 'Toki' or 'Tanigawa'
@@JapanTravelTips2021 because it's not double Decker?
@@asrirachmawati3276 Unfortunately there is no double decker Shinkansen now.
@@JapanTravelTips2021 oh to bad.. i always wonder how such an expensive train still run even there's not much Passengers.. .there's a lot empty Cars.
@@asrirachmawati3276 You are right !!
The beeping sounds for the places on the screen are extremely annoying.
Thank you so much for your advice.
Thanks for taking note of it.
Why they retiring the train
It's a good question. Shinkansen must run at super high speed but this double decker type is difficult to meet a current standard.
