Riding Japan's Strangest Subway Train like Doctor Octopus | Osaka Metro 400 Series 

it is fun!

Same, it looks amazing 😮

Ugh- I was just having this SAME exact thought. Down to the number. I was thinking that a good 2 months would be great. I am so happy because I just got a job offer from a company that I previously spent 7 years at and they informed me that after the new year rolls over, they will put me back to the amount of Time Off that I owned BEFORE I previously left the company. So I am already thinking of planning a big trip to Japan perhaps in early 2025 or at least February of 2025. I will have enough PTO.

hey right around when you commented that I started my 2 month journey there

Tokyo started having metro lines in the 1920s. London started having them in the 1870s. Age of the system is not a factor. The NYC subway has been neglected for the past 70 years. Of course it's shit (for the population size it's serving).

@lars7935 No kidding. Great Britain was the first to have an electrified subway. NYC was next. The NYC subeay is the largest in the world. It has multi level tunnels! These were built in the 1930's and 1930's. Yes, people are slovs in NYC. Pigs. That's why the system is a mess.

@@roncaruso931 Counting the largest system is extremely difficult. Yes NYC has technically to longest track and most stations. That however doesn't account for through running trains and the multitude of other rapid transit operators in Tokyo. Nor has NYC the highest ridership. Not by far even. It's all about funding and staffing. Staff it what keeps public transit clean elsewhere not some kind of superior spirit of the people. And if you think multi level tunnels make NYC special I got some news for you...

@lars7935 OK. Show me some multi level tunnels. NYC engineers built them in the 20's . Amazing engineering for the time. NYC has the largest subway system in the world. Period.

@@roncaruso931 There's nothing special about multi level tunnels. My city has them in the underground system and so do many (inlcuding London on some of the oldest lines). NYC subway is only the longest because it was incorporated into one operator. Many cities have larger rapid transit systems. It's just that they are split into multiple operators. Nothing special there. I get that you want to feel special. In that case I would suggest you focus on 24/7 operations which are not unique but fairly rare. Oh and also badly underfunded mainteance, shitty service patterns and underinvestments so massive you had whole tunnels unused because you couldn't afford to run trains through them for half a century.

Thank you! I couldn't remember the name!

O metro de Sao Paulo, tem esta qualidade e isso eu garanto e em questao de beleza, que eh um conceito relativo aos olhos de quem admira, prefiro o visual dos trens da linha amarela em Sao Paulo que a meu ver tem um ar mais futurista que esses verdes mostrados no video, inclusive no que diz respeito a aerodinamica.

@@alladinandarilhobrazuca6357 Sim, os trens do metrô de São Paulo são ótimos. Não perdem em nada do foi mostrado do vídeo. O que não temos aqui são os trens de viajem. O que é uma pena. Foco imaginando como seria bom viajar pelo Brasil de trem.

@@janasto Seria otimo, mas saiba que os bons trens no Japao tem passagens mais caras que aviao e pode pesquisar e cair o queixo ao ver por exemplo que uma viagem media....500 km..no Japao, pode custar algo entre 700 e 2000 dolares, o que eh caro ate para japones. O valor varia em funçao da procura(datas especiais) e classe dos vagoes, mas mesmo em datas mais comuns, a coisa eh bem cara! Cara pra japones, suiço, americano e seja la quem for! Nos EUA as viagens mais longas tambem sao bem caras e posso afirmar sem medo de errar...morei la.....que a principal operadora...AMTRAK...eh deficitaria e sobrevive por subsidios de governos municipais, estaduais, federal e ate de doaçoes de apaixonados pelo meio de transporte. Vamos supor que voce queira ir de Chicago a Los Angeles e o custo do bilhete leito sai pelo menos umas 5 vezes mais caro que uma passagem de aviao! Coisa de se passar umas 45 horas no trem! De aviao pode se encontrar passagens por 100 e poucos dolares e no trem pode passar de 600 dolares. Trem eh bom...pode ser agradavel e divertido, mas esta longe de ser o meio de transporte mais barato, nos tempos atuais!

Vocês já viram o Metrô chinês? É o único do Mundo que possuí um design semelhante aos Trens Bala.
