Hey everyone thanks for watching our first video from Japan 🇯🇵 and thanks Atlas VPN for supporting our work. You can grab Atlas VPN for just $1.99/mo before the deal expires: get.atlasvpn.com/Faultline
Personally, to me it seems like the prefecture is just being stubborn. The company apparently has come up with solutions to handle the water issue and say the amount of water that would be lost is negligent. To be fair to the governor, the solutions proposed are only for after the construction is complete, not during it and there’s apparently no way to properly return the water to the river during the construction.
Still, this seems minor. Apparently it’s been proposed this summer that Tashiro Dam would supply water for everything lost during construction. Yet there’s been no update since the summer on this issue.
Do you think the governor is only concerned about the Oi River or do you think there’s more going on?
As an American, thank God Japan did not follow our foot-steps.
They physically couldn't. Can you imagine their economy even functioning, if everyone drove everywhere? People would be stuck in trafic for days, if japan had americas blind devotion to archaic transit options.
Okinawa, which was under American occupation until the 70s, is car centric af despite the capital Naha having a population density higher than Nagoya.
@@yuyoshida2076 what happens when Aichi prefecture is a massive car manufacturer. There aren't many circumferential train lines so you unnecessarily have to go to the city center to transfer trains. Still a lot better than North American cities of similar size tho.
@@hamanakohamaneko7028 how bad is the traffic jam in okinawa?

@@adelalmohtaseb5261 He's referring to how the Japanese love doing lots and lots of paperwork.
I am genuinely in awe of how good your videos always are, the production quality, and everything. You guys really inspired me to start my own channel and I wanna thank you for that
I simply cannot believe the pace at which your channel is growing. No wait, I absolutely can. I was here before you hit a thousand subs and when I saw you’re at almost 50 k I almost fell backwards. You deserve it!
OG Daniella!! Thanks for coming along for the journey, it means a lot to us all 🙏
Fascinating and super well researched as always. Really love the inclusion of on the ground footage, hope to see more on the channel!!
Glad you enjoyed the format Sameed!
Really? I have to disagree. This one seems rather sloppily researched and not up to the standards Ive come to expect from this team (apart from the great visuals).
There are a lot of small missteps, like calling the US highway system one highway, to bigger ones like omitting one of the two big reasons for Chuo construction, namely the big increase in capacity on the corridor. This aspect is also important to understand the impact and use of the Shinkansen in general (another small mistake, "Shinkansen" [literally: new trunk/main line] refers to the line, not the trains.) I know a "cool train go fast" approach is enough to elicit nods from the audience, but come on.
The description of the conflict between JR Central and Shizuoka prefecture is misleading and inadequate. It omits the crucial fact, that preceding the concerns raised about Oi river water levels, the prefecture had been pushing JR to include stops in the prefecture to boost the local economy. This severly undermines the believability of the prefectures position and is also mentioned in literature on this conflict. How they missed that is beyond me. It would have also made for a way more interesting video if included, imho.
I hope they will do better in the future!
Informative and well researched that condenses a long story into a bite sized one.
Only issue is that the video thumbnail and the title are a bit misleading. It makes it seem Japan is blowing up mountaintops in the style of the coal mining when in actually they are pursuing a traditional method to bore through mountainous terrain. That combined with fact that the video only answers the title question in the last few minutes, it feels a little hyperbolic and click bait. Enjoyed the video otherwise.
Agreed, I'd recommend avoiding that style in the future. Bring it a little closer to the actual subject. Great video though!
Fantastic video, guys!!! Welcome back to UA-cam, we missed you!!
Amazing video, I'm surprised by the video production quality, you guys deserved 1000x views and subs then you have right now, far superior content compared to some serious major media corps, kudos.. keep growing.
Tbh, I can see the engineers on the project coming up with a more out of the box solution for this problem. Japanese engineers are some of the best in the world and rail construction projects in difficult terrain have yielded some pretty interesting and creative solutions before, one example coming to mind being China and mitigating permafrost on the Tibetan plateau railway.
I've always hypothesized that it also simply makes geographic sense for the Shizuoka government to be opposed to the project, as it would bypass the prefecture's main population centers, taking passengers off the existing Tokaido Shinkansen and therefore hurting them economically.
Actually, no. I'm from Hamamatsu, Shizuoka. There are like 10+ Shinkansen every hour but most of them serve large cities like Tokyo, Yokohama, Nagoya, Kyoto and Osaka. Hamamatsu and Shizuoka are major cities, but the populations are 800k and 700k respectively, so not nearly enough to make it worth stopping to slow down travel between the megacities. As a result, frequencies have been terrible, with 3 trains per hour+ having to stop for extended periods of time to let faster trains pass because there's one every 3-7 minutes. If the maglev is constructed, travel between megacities transfers there and JR Central will increase the number of trains stopping because the line isn't pressured to transport millions of people.
@@hamanakohamaneko7028 So, is the maglev good for the Shizuoka prefecture?
@@hamanakohamaneko7028 in america some cities are lucky for 7 trains a week.
@@whitewolf2767 for the exact reason stated above yes.
Fantastic video Andy! I hope your channel grows as fast as the Maglev because you truly deserve so. Can’t wait to see the next piece of the Japan series 🇯🇵
Not only is the quality top notch and the topic interesting but I just the love the way you go there to see it for yourself. Shows research means more than Google keep up the good work
Absolutely fantastic video! I hope you can make a video on UAE's plans of a revamped metro system as it looks exciting to say the least :)
Thanks for the idea, we will look into it :)
SO GOOD. Yet again, another well-researched and produced story. And loveddddd the on-the-ground reporting. Really hope that we see more of this from the team. 🤞🏽🤩
Really happy to see this one release! Love how it came out!
Saying that a tunnel damages ecosystems is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard. Tunnels preserve the biosphere that live above them.
Your style and approach to your work is like a breathe of fresh air.
I was here at 60k subs and now you are at 70k.
I am excited to see where the journey through your channel leads😇
3:54 A nice teaser for the upcoming/next video, which is rare for this channel. Keep up the good work.
Love the video guys! Great job Andy as always!! Can’t wait to watch the next episode about Japan! 😍🙌🏼
Your videos are cool dude, easy to understand because of how clear you are explaining stuff! Cheers mi deers xx
Dude. Your channel is a GEM!!! Great find!!!
Fully glued to my screen. Great video
Thanks dude!
Great job, can't wait for the next video
Keep up the good work! It's only a matter of time before fault line is as classic a channel as City Beautiful
curves being slow seems so obvious in retrospect...but i didn't know before this! thanks!
Thinking about rail tunnels under rivers immediatly comes to mind the Isarco River Underpass here in Italy part of the Brenner Base Tunnel high speed line between Bolzano and Innsbruck (in Austria). There a small high speed rail tunnel section under a river has been constructed in relative safety and, to my knowledge, without any major negative enviromental impact by, among other things, freezing the ground during construction.
Great vid!
Awesome! Quality content!
Fantastic video 👏
Great video!
Great video! Got yourself a new sub
Great new video, hope you enjoyed your time their
THIS HOLE WAS MADE FOR ME!!
commenting in this video before watching cuz I know its awesome.
some amazing video. It has been long without getting a video from you but the time drawn into this one was worth.
so amazing
Thanks for waiting, glad you enjoyed it and we are excited to be back 😁
Awww... was kinda sad that you didn't go to the SCMaglev museum in Nagoya! Quite the trip
You really should become part of the nebula team. They are great for educational videos like yours.
bro had never done any paper work in japan, the most efficient indeed!
they're going to wake up some kaiju
The narrow gauge for local trains ended up being an advantage in the end
I give you kudos on the coverage of this point... ( the very rare compliment )
I will preface this with.. I am moving back to Japan Permanently, but Not to any of the top 50 populated Cities.. ...I do High Tech and work in the top 10% of my field... "just let that [sink] in"
The Shinkansen ticket prices are very expensive compared to regular train tickets. It is lot cheaper to fly from Tokyo to Osaka. Would imagine maglev tickets even more so.
That's what prevents me from traveling on the Shinkansen unless someone else pays for the ticket. It's a LOT cheaper in other East Asian countries like China. Not sure if I read correctly, but I read that the Maglev tickets would only cost a little bit more than Shinkansen - in that case I have no idea how they're going to get their money back. But yeah, I have a feeling the tickets will be really expensive.
might be cheaper, but taking into account the time spent at the airport and travelling to and from the airport it's not really faster. Maybe a faster than the current shinkansen but definitely not faster than the maglev. For some time is money and a lot of people will definitely pay a premium for that.
@@immersion6105 Not plane. Highway bus. They can be a LOT cheaper, but take longer obviously. Really popular with budget travelers
@@pbworld7858 yeah, I was mainly talking about business travels where time matters more
Most business men or women won't want to take a 10 hour night bus to their destination
Watching this drained me.
There is no gamble on high-speed trains and the network has so much potential being there are whole islands with no service and when they gain service to all their major cities the network will see far high ridership numbers being that will also allow for a loop (down south) and if the maglev line evential makes it along the whole spine (and a loop down south) it will make money also
Good documentary but the first commercial maglev was Airlink at Birmingham Airport UK. So United Kingdom was the first nation to take the plunge with a commercially in service maglev.
All new HSR lines need to be maglev
Hope it pays off. I like trains
I wonder if Shizuoka will try and wrangle a Shizuoka Airport Shinkansen station out of any settlement. They've been after one for years.
Japan: Forget about cost! We are going to take the shortest route possible!
U.S. It's too costly to build a direct route through the mountains even though it would mean a time savings for the user.
Me: It's not really high speed if a circular route is chosen, because any time savings acquired by speed is mitigated by distance traveled. So you want minimize the distance by making the route as straight as possible.
I'm always here for a maglev!!!!
Wow
All I’m saying is it’s better than the HS2 for Britain.
Blowing holes in mountains? Never heard of that before, Let's hope some horrific accident doesn't happen
If this is a joke, it doesn't make much sense. We blow holes in mountains for tunnels constantly, all over the world.
Shizuoka: *Tanna tunnel flashbacks
love your videos but the title should have the word maglev or high speed rail or really fast train(400kmph) in brackets because, from experience watching those videos, these videos get more views and the fact that most of the video is about high speed rail in japan not really the tunnels.
Thanks Ryan, thanks for the suggestion. We've been discussing this too, lets see what happens 🚇
so, jsut make the train go over instead of under the river (?)
Between this ChouShinkansen, the Neom line city and Elon Musk's Hyperloop, the Japanese project could be the first and only successful, even if we don't know if it will work as well as their current lines, and for what part of people (I heard that ChouShinkansen could have only half of capacity of the Shinkansen line at the same place)
They should just buy a tunnel boring machine or is the rock to hard for that?
That's still cheaper than California HSR lol
The thing with Maglevs is that they are so expensive that you need to have massive extremely high density cities to make them somewhat monetarily sustainable
The construction costs are high but idk about operation. The Chuo Shinkansen is lower capacity than the Tokaido Shinkansen so it transports less people, but fares will be 15000 yen which isn't much higher than the current 13620 on the Tokaido Shinkansen.
It doesn't matter for japan, the locals will eat that anyway
@@hamanakohamaneko7028 Yeah, the problem is normally the building cost because of all those magnets needed
@@walli6388 It'll be worth it tho
like tokyo and Osaka
Hey, great vid but you kinda butchered a few names there.
7:43 Maglev - not "Megalev"
MAG - LEV
Shizuoka - not "Shinzuku" or "Shinzooka"
SHE - ZOO - OH - KA
kinda threw me off a bit lol
exactly
he also said shinjay instead of shinji, and it made me cringe a little
Secret tunnel… secret tunnel… through the mountain.. secret, secret, secret, secret tunnel! Oh wait not that secret actually. Cheers.
Commenting for the algorithm 😊
w vid
This is why HSR in the US will fail. the lines they are building do not have dedicated rails for the trains. Glorified money sink that will not make back the tax dollars wasted on it. they keep saying how fast the trains "could" go... never what its actual average speed will be once in service. it'll be faster to fly or more convenient to drive.
The bigger dichotomy : the entire japanese train experience includes watching the landscape and taking the time to eat your bento in peace while waiting to arrive... VS claustrophobic and deafening bullet train ? Can't wait to see what they plan on doing to make the tunnel experience enjoyable and worth it for japanese customers themselves. On paper it just sounds like a bad idea on many levels.
Trains are not deafening, and maglevs neither. Planes are much lauder, and yet people take them all the time. And while yes there probably won't be much scenic views along the ride, that's not exactly the point of transportation. A flight on a cloudy day also has no views except a white canvas. Or a metro ride underground, yet it's taken by millions everyday around the globe. And if a select group of people prefers the scenic view, well there's the old line that will gladly accommodate them.
@@Squizie3 having travelled a lot via train in the Alps and Pyrenees (aka tunnels) I can testify : deafening and claustrophobic. I'm just pointing out the usual dichotomy we can observe in Japan : ultra modern meets ultra old/traditional. That's all.
@@ironboobs I understand. Ultimately it also comes down to personal preference. I for one also take trains through tunnels regularly, and don't experience that at all. I'm pretty sure the majority won't bother as millions do it already, but I can definitely see why some would prefer the 'old' line. Both have their place, no one is forced to travel in a way they don't like
the thing is, this line is meant for japanese people trying to get to a place faster, i'd argue that most of the people that this is targeting dont really care about the scenery, its most likely going to be used by business people commuting between osaka and tokyo
took so much time to film and research but not enough time to find out the pronunciation of shinji in shinji sogo. not sheenjai bruh, get in the eva shinji
5:47 not for now ( cina maglev)
6:10 That's standard gauge idiot size. they have to do that because to increase the speed of the train. that's the reason why freeways are wider than national roads
6:20 of course you can but. High-speed rail lines are dedicated to fast trains not freight unlike in the United States where Amtrak has to be late because the freight train company impedes passenger train travel (yes they are very selfish because of money)
7:17 the speed is not a problem. the problem is that the capacity is already maximum. trains run every 3 minutes. (in the United States the light rail runs every 15 minutes it is too long to wait for the next train) so they had to build new lines to add new capacity
7:34 is Maglev trains still use trucks (wheels) at lower speeds (near stations) when the high-speed wheels are replaced by magnets
8:03 monorail is suck
10:45 it is faster and cheaper than the California high speed train
11:54 at least they make more sense than NIMBY in the states. but if in China it would be directly bulldozed all over the river
you're blowing holes in the mountain?? that sounds terrible!
we like to think of it as...extreme wabi sabi... 🙂
Just saying ,you are doing a nice working bringing that to People ..but I do not believe in train with wheels,,,,magnetic levitation ,,,but also TRILLIONS not billions lol have a nice day.
WRONG pronunciation of Shinkansen
Classic Brit.
It's due to the present Geopolitical situation... 🤷♂️
But they know how to execute it.
first
hahaha atlas is running a discount....for about 5 years
68 billion dollars? No one cares now, after Qatar spent 200 billion on FIFA. This maglev is comparatively very efficient with money. Americans should've been okay with billions spent on transit projects this whole while, but they forget how subsidized road projects of similar costs are.
Shizuoka literally pssing off its every neighbor in japan so became meme like gunma prefecture
You should at least check out pronounciations of Japanese words before publishing - you said 'shizooka' and then even 'shinzuku' at 12.30, when it's Shizuoka.

Thank youuuuu 😅
The entire “train” business in Japan is just a hustle. Nobody asked for another high speed train. Government spending buys union votes. Would you like some Yakuza to go with your new train?
Please, for the love of God, learn the correct Japanese pronunciation!!! It is Shi-zu-oka, like She-zoo-oka! Not She-zooka! Just a short Google research could solve this. Don't be weeaboo DESUUUUU. Be someone who is interested in the culture and language.
Ah, nice. 12:30 Now it is Shinzuko?
