Mini-Shinkansen does not mean smaller gauge. All Shinkansen in Japan are Standard Gauge (4ft 8.5 in.) Mini-Shinkansen refers to upgrading former Narrow gauge trackage into Standard for Shinkansen use and slower speeds exceeding no faster than 130 KM/H (80 MPH). Akita and Yamagata services are the Mini-Shinkansen. If the E5 and E6 were of different gauges, they would not be able to run together or with other E Series Shinkansen.
The mini shinkansen certainly have the same gauge, but the width of the trains is limited to 2.95m wide to pass conventional stations (E3 and E6 series). “Normal” Shinkansen are 3.35 to 3.40m wide. Note that the conventional trains operating on the "Mini shinkansen" lines are the only JR conventional trains to be on standard gauge
Fun fact the shinkansen nose is designed after a bird called the Kingfisher.. The skinkansen travles so fast (250 mph) it would cause sonic booms when existing a tunnel.. Lucky one of the engineers was an avid bird watcher an discovered when diving head-first into the water at speeds of up to 25mph it does so without a splash.. so they mimic the head of the kingfisher for the shinkansen an Boom!! problem solved.
E5 and H5 Shinkansen are identical in terms of overall appearance. The only major differences are that the H5 has an enhanced snow-plow for colder weather operations in Hokkaido , slower operation speed through the Hokkaido Undersea tunnel (Duel Gauge track), limited to 260 KM/HM, (though both are cable of 320 KM/H), a blue/ purple stripe along the side rather than the pink one, and the logo is that of Hokkaido on the H5.
Also the lights on the H5 is LED, while the E5 is only using the Halogen light so that's why if you saw the E5, the light is more warmer color than the H5, the E5 is owned by JR East and the H5 is owned by JR Hokkaido
Is he getting into n scale!?!🎉 If your going to get another N scale set get the N scale River County CSX GEVO it is so nice and runs smoothly and get eh Kato intermodal set with it! We need more n scale American 🇺🇸
How its done when the one train drives on the same track but the other one stands still. Because it should also drive but kato isn't digital so how it's done 😅
Hi Mate, Good review thanks very much. I stumbled upon your channel when I saw your video of your tour around the Kato Hobby Centre. What's your view on the 'Japanfigure' website? Are the products good quality? Cheers pal Umesh

I own the E5, and i bought both extentions, and it's so awesome. Best purchase of my life
That's scary to see them pass each other, I keep thinking they're gonna crash.
Also it's cool how the doors move with the couplers. Great unboxing!
Also I am the first and probably only person to watch this video while sitting in a 1949 Plymouth p18 super deluxe
Nice!

I know I'm an adult but I can't look at these shinkasens without thinking of the anime henkai robo shinkalion
Genuinely surprised someone else knows that show
@@ydobemos how can you not. If you love anime, trains and robots, how can you not know of it
Can.you make. One. More vdeo
reminds me of galaxy trains
@@AlgerianGuy-xf9lp galaxy trains? Never heard of it. I've heard of galaxy railways and galaxy express 999 but not galaxy trains
I’m in Japan right now and I’ll be riding a Shinkansen into Tokyo tomorrow

Loading gauge refers to the size of maximum height and width, it is separate from track gauge

Not a sonic boom, it’s a pressure differential boom.
@@PRRFAN Gotcha.. it's a pressure wave.

And a heater that can reach temps of the sun

Can you build a ferrosur GE AC4400CW?
How its done when the one train drives on the same track but the other one stands still.

Can you please do the Frecciarossa ETR 500 or 1000? i rode it many times and it is a very nice train
Nice Unboxing
Awesome my man!
What camera do you use
They seems so small. Do they make them slightly bigger?
Are the trains remote control? Or how do they move?
I'm having issues with them continuously derailing....any advice please

Could you do a video about all of ur models and cars/coaches?
You should make a video showing off all your model train collection
This is the first time seeing banked/super elivated tracks in model trains
Japan does made a lot of toy trains but I used to play tomica train in the past
17:52 this is the moment when the lovers kissed for the first time
You have really cool Shinkansen trains🚅
Hey back to making Minecraft animations train Mine imator I'm from Brazil oi❤😊
Craftyfoxe. Howdy?! like. useful jbo, ))
Amazing is that remote control? How much for the full entire set because i love to buy one. 🇵🇼♥️🇯🇵✌🏾
How small are those trains?
Also just wanted to inquire,
Would you say Kato products are the most durable and reliable in the world?
Umesh
Video idea 💡: run all your n-scale trains even your NS loco.
No the NS will derail like NS on a daily basis
Because the thing is I also build trains as well on Minecraft if you ever would like to see them I do have a rail yard a full of all of them to be honest and I have a lot of them I can show you sometime
WHER3 DID YOU BUY THIS, I WANT THAT!
Amazing I like it❤❤
