Technology:
JR East will start
to operate a new model of “Hayabusa (Falcon)” Shinkansen train starting on
March 16 at an operating speed of 320 km/h with the revision of new train schedule.
A test-ride event was held today for the press. President of JR East told that the
320 km/h operating speed is very high level in the world and expected to open
up new possibilities.
The Hayabusa travels
between Tokyo and Aomori in about three hours. Although the
Hayabusa has the ability to travel at 320 km/h, the maximum speed was set at
300 km/h since it started the service in March 2011. The nose of the train
became sharper and longer to reduce air resistance, and noise and waver inside
and outside of the train were reduced. The new model has the gran class that is
more gorgeous than the first-class.
