Operating between Tokyo and Osaka, this was the first bullet train line in Japan—opened in 1964, just in time for the Tokyo Olympics. Before the Shinkansen, a conventional train traveling between Tokyo and Osaka took six hours and 30 minutes to complete the trip. Now the latest N700 trains, with a maximum speeds of 300 kph (180 mph), can complete the trip in as little as two hours and 25 minutes. Pictured here, the Shinkansen zooms past towering Mount Fuji, Japan's highest peak. #bullettrain #Shinkansen
