Northern Canada has issues with the rail service being discontinued. While there's still the rail tracks, regular vehicles can't use it since they don't have the wheels for the rails. Maybe a bus similar to this can travel on those existing rails for hundreds of kilometers with fuel stations in between to ensure that it has fuel to continue travel. Obviously it would need several buses in different types like for passengers, cargo, maintenance, etc. But the investment is worth it if resuming regular rail service is too expensive.
I had to laugh when you immediately went to see if the wooden steering wheel moved - it was exactly what I was thinking about! 😂 Very interesting video, as always. My October cruise around Japan is stopping at many of the places I know from watching your videos over the last few years. I'll look through prior videos to see where they match! Thank you. Until next time - be well and happy!
A great way to use existing infrastructure and extend it cheaply to meet changing needs. Thank you for making a huge effort on all of your videos this year. I look forward to them each week and have enjoyed all of them. Have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year and I look forward to new videos in 2025. 🌲
I wish we had Bus-Trains like that in my city, traffic is a constant problem. Edit: Love that I have to read subtitles because I pay more attention to your videos.
Was really wondering about the transition time from road to rail when I first started the video. Was imaging a lot of messing around and something in the order of at least ten minutes. 15 seconds, though, is fantastic. Hardly even a delay at all. You'd spend more time at a red traffic light. What a fantastic idea, and implemented so well! Also, a very merry Christmas to you and all the best for the new year!
Very cool. The beach looked so beautiful and clean. it's hard to find that, here in The USA. People here are slobs and leave their trash everywhere. Merry Christmas!
Happy new year 🎉 Missed the uploads. I'm amazed by those incredible landscapes. Visiting Japan is one of my bucket list life wishes! Very expensive at the moment though 😢
Merry Christmas my Japanese friend, I hope you and your family as a wonderful Christmas. We'll you keep surprising me with unbelievable rides. A bus train or a train bus well it doesn't matter but how unique.I was hoping to see a Keychain , I wanted the blue but didn't see any. What sovereign did you get? The song was joyful and happy, I was truly enjoying the song. Thank you my friend for another wonderful video. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The Great Western railway in the UK had road-rail buses in the 1930s . Running on our 4ft 8 1/2insh tracks, they were a bit more stable than on 3ft 6insh tracks.
I had my thought's and such collected on this last night but I totally blanked and fell asleep my Apologies. That is really neat and I want to say probably more beneficial to the local community as it can reach more destinations then a train could go.
it's the scenario in rural japan that there olimited road access and a lot elderly people in those areas where semiactive rail 2 services a day it is easier to modify a coaster 22 seater bus or similar ride the rails
I agree with your last sentences on this video: Japan is so creative and fascinating and so totally different from the rest of the world ! Thanks a lot for sharing those special experiences with us. Merry Christmas to your family and friends.
Such a beautiful ocean view! The landscape you traveled through all looked quite scenic. I enjoy watching these videos.. Makes me want to come see Japan for myself.. My daughter is about to begin 8 years of college.. Perhaps when she gets established in her career..😁😁
@@enigma9273people just love to complain. Japan is also thin and relatively strait making it ideal for railways. Some ignorants like this commenter don’t even understand the size and geography of their own country.
As a fan of both trains and road vehicles, I found it interesting that these vehicles exist. The scenery was so beautiful. If I am ever able to travel to Japan, I'll have to take a ride on the DMV. Thank you for the video and all the hard work, time, and effort you put into them. Merry Christmas!
hehhh ini bas yang cukup comel dan juga senang dibawa ,kita perlu banyak bas mampu milik ini terutama yang menggunakan teknologi toyota yang juga brand kenderaan nombor satu dunia
I feel that they should have something like this in America instead of building expensive highways also to provide transportation to areas not accessible by public transportation
Gab es eine ähnliche Bus//Zug-Kombination nicht bereits in den 50er Jahren in Deutschland? Mir geistert ein Bild im Kopf herum, wo rote Bahnbusse sich ähnlich auf zwei Systemen fortbewegten
While looking unique and interesting, it's far from efficiency. Only in order to justify incomplete railway operation they pay a multiple of cost for vehicle and staffing. (Also takes more time for conversion and station access as you see in the movie) Buses are enough there imo.
Here's me thinking this would be merely something like the O-Bahn in Australia, and then they come up with an actual Transformer. 😂 This is genius. Considering how much freight traffic runs on both tracks and roads, they should build semi trucks like this.🫠
They do build some heavy duty trucks like this to pull railcars on inclines that a locomotive can't get enough traction on. They are only used on a few small spurs and I've also seen one that moves cars around an industrial area.
I really love these videos. One of my favorite channels on UA-cam! Right now I am sick in bed and I am watching these videos for comfort.
Thank you so much! I’m so glad my videos can bring you comfort. Take care and get well soon!
Get well soon ❤

I wished my country have those!
most passengers in the Philippines would have a huge benefit of getting hybrid then. Merry christmas whoever you are
Absolutely! It would be great if the Philippines could have something like this. Merry Christmas!

A two way railbus is not a new invention neither a japanese one.
In the 1950s Deutsche Bundesbahn already operated a Schienen- Strassen Bus.
That is so cool never seen nothing like that Love watching all your videos, thanks😊
Merry Christmas to you and your family. What a great way to relax!! Thank you.
Merry Christmas! Glad you’re enjoying and relaxing! Thank you!

we have vehicles in the US that can do this but they're not for regular passengers. They're just for railroad maintenance workers.
You have the vehicle all to yourself. Nice. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
Pretty nice, right? Merry Christmas!
All your videos are so entertaining and great for any tourists looking for places to visit. Awesome job 😊
Thanks! Glad you’re enjoying the videos.
German rail workers use simlar trucks but with 4 train wheels.
Never saw this for public transportation.
Smart and unique.
There was an attempt using Streetbuses on Railroads. In the 1950 ´s. Was for at least 15 Jears in Service. Look for Schienen-Straßen-Omnibus.
@dermonarch5814 ach. Wusste ich nicht, danke.
Happy Holidays to you your family and everyone who watches this thank you for your channel it makes me want to move to Japan 😍🤩🙏🏾🎄🎆🇯🇵
Thank you! We’ll be waiting for you in Japan! Happy Holidays!

If the Backstreet Boys will have a concert in Tokushima, Japan, they should experience this ride.
That would be awesome! I bet they’d love the unique experience in Tokushima.
that was so kool. Thanks
such buses should be used in the brts network
They are pretty good for vending machine pizzas! Worth a try if you see one! 🍕
That has suddenly made a lot of sence
O what a logical idea, japan is awesome 👍
nice buss bro ,happy holiday
Thanks! Happy holidays!
@@experience_japan happy new year
When I saw this, my first thought was of a Sumida M.2593 (Type 91)
Japan's railroad history is colorful and exciting,
The Great Western railway in the UK had road-rail buses in the 1930s . Running on our 4ft 8 1/2insh tracks, they were a bit more stable than on 3ft 6insh tracks.

I love your videos they are so calming
Thank you! So happy you find them enjoyable!
Wow nice!
I like that future-looking bus. Its cool.
Thank you! It’s really futuristic, isn’t it?
@@experience_japan yeah
Cool 👏
woow, nice.. 😍😍🥰🥰
it's the scenario in rural japan that there olimited road access and a lot elderly people in those areas where semiactive rail 2 services a day it is easier to modify a coaster 22 seater bus or similar ride the rails
Great video. I hope this concept can be used in another area where having disused railway with low population people.
It’d be great to see this concept used in more places!
Merry Christmas have a great day ❤❤❤
That was such a great experience! Added to my growing Japan bucket list!
Thank you! Hope you can experience it in Japan someday!

I already finished the video and I'm still waiting for lunch time
The music is cool it's like I want to dance lol

Thank you! Hope to see you in Japan someday!
Merry Christmas
merry christmas, meu consagrado
I miss the capsule hotel videos..
do you?
meanwhile in America we just waste money making bigger high ways instead of doing things like this.
So true. It’d be great to have more efficient solutions like this!
Yeah we're also not a tiny ass island. But hay you tried to use that sponge between your ears

hello im planning on going to japan do you have any reccomendations on where to go? btw nice video and merry christmas!
It has Different feeling. Feeling relax
Nice bus
I agree, it’s a pretty unique vehicle!
In Boston, Massachusetts, they have hybrid buses-however, they’re not that NOISY
That’s nice! Quiet buses sound much more comfortable!
no, not the first. not even close. Germany experimented with these buses decades and decades ago
Aqui no Brasil, além de erradicar o transporte ferroviário de passageiros, ainda desmontamos as ferrovias, arrancando trilhos e formentes.
have you go to the owl cafe in tokyo?
not many english speaking people know the word "diorama"... impressed
hehhh ini bas yang cukup comel dan juga senang dibawa ,kita perlu banyak bas mampu milik ini terutama yang menggunakan teknologi toyota yang juga brand kenderaan nombor satu dunia
Was the long nose really necessary? great job by the way
It feels like i watched this like 2 years ago, but it released 6 days ago..
Bus + Train = Brain or Train + Bus = Trus.
I feel that they should have something like this in America instead of building expensive highways also to provide transportation to areas not accessible by public transportation
Toyota coaster with hood
How is power transferred to the wheels when the bus is in rail mode?
😊🏆🏆
🎄Merry Christmas everyone 🎁
Merry Christmas! Have a wonderful holiday season!
It exists in Bolivia, but only for rails

Ofc its in japan
Germany used a similar concept in the 1950´s. But the Trainwheels were seperate.
ua-cam.com/video/CEGPEFNpoV0/v-deo.html
What a weird vehicle! What is the objective here, is that train track part so long it'd be otherwise somehow worse as a normal bus?
Here's me thinking this would be merely something like the O-Bahn in Australia, and then they come up with an actual Transformer. 😂
This is genius. Considering how much freight traffic runs on both tracks and roads, they should build semi trucks like this.🫠

Not the first, in the late 50's we hat one.
Notbthe first
Th outeniqua steam museum was one the first in the early 1990s
Of course other countries made rail car hybrid before that
🇰🇪 innovative minds
With just you as the only passenger, how can they afford to run it?
Why those Hybrid Bus color is just like Hong Kong taxi color XD
I sure wish I had the money to take a vacation there!
I hope your dream comes true someday! Cheering for you!
Thank you for the wonderful video.
I also film videos of Japanese vehicles. Please come and take a look.
Thank you for watching! I’ll definitely check out your videos too!
