Trains in Aomori, The Most Snowy Area in the World ! In Aomori, trains always run smoothly while the amounts of snow are impressive, 8 meters accumulated on average each winter!
I guess Im randomly asking but does anyone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..? I somehow forgot the login password. I love any tips you can offer me.
@Langston Danny thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
Being from a tropical country blessed by sunshine, I marvel in amazement at the beautiful snow. This is a place I'd like to visit for short term, but to live for long term, I'll pass.
One thing that Japans railways have and that is free geothermal energy to keep the points and trackworks clear. Obviously not every place but the major city routes have it.
@@briancooper562 Japan does not get much energy from geothermal. Most of them are in historic places and well preserved tourist spots. The Japanese will be up in arms if they are spoilt by big modern power stations.
There is a simple solution to getting 8 meters of snow each year = build train tracks that are elevated on 8-meter high trestles. That way the snow simply falls through the railway ties and builds up under the trestles themselves, so no plowing is ever required. But seeing the actual accumulation of only around 2 meters of snow, I think that an elevation of the tracks by 2 meters would be more than enough to take care of the problem over most of that route.
That probably wouldn’t work so well. Spectacular blizzards where up to 40 level lying inches (101.6 cm) are not unheard of in Northern Honshu and Hokkaido. Imagine the wind piling all that up in massive drifts all over any platform. It could quite easily be covered by over 20 feet of snow in snow sections.
It’s not that really cold when the snow is heavy i cannot explain why but in some part in Japan where it doesn’t snow is much more colder maybe because of the wind than the snowy place.
Trains and Snow that is what i call Heaven or Perfection. Thank you the entertaining video, I enjoyed every minute of it. And thank you for standing in the Snow and Cold or was it Cold and Snow.
I saw they have heated points and that is a must for keeping the trains going, plus overhead electrics. I don’t now if the trains on HS1,which are Japanese made work on the line from Dover to London, where I live the line is only partly high speed, so it’s uses the third rail up to Ebbs fleet, then overhead electrification from there to St Pancras.
In Austria we sort of have the same conditions just a bit weaker. But our trains also go as long as the locos themselves dont turn into snow blocks lol.
Cold, colder, coldest . Frozen food can be in outside temperature entire season . But selling refrigerator to the locals of Aomori will be real salesmanship. Any takers for sales position in Aomori ?
Well do I know it! Two feet of snow in Schiphol Airport in March, 2004 = 26 hour delay for me. Two feet of snow in Detroit Airport on the way back = 25 minute delay.
Seeing those thin slits in the snow where the train wheels go adds a totally different view to trains, the trains seem to be almost operating without tracks.
Fantastic that the trains are running at all... Must be hell on the roads. By the way, what kind of train is it at around 14:30? Great design!! And what line? Great video! 👍🎅🎄⛷️
