    Every time I watch videos on this channel, all I can think about is how beautiful Japan is.

    We want to visit Japan so badly! We've heard great things about the trains (from their smoothness, to their speed, to always being on time, etc). Seeing the countryside in the snow would be an absolute dream! Looks amazing! 🚂 ❄️

    Thank you for taking me along on a ride through your beautiful country. I've always wanted to visit Japan, and your channel is the next best thing in the meantime. Hope you are doing well. We're getting some more snow tonight which means I'll need to get up at 5 AM to dig my garage out. Ugh...
    Cheers from Chicago!

    Aww Kuga another great video, i love seeing the trains and Japan, its really interesting.. I love the colour of the train and the whistle sounds so cute, Beaitufl scenery and the magical snow.. 4 minutes late in such conditions is amazing.. Here in England the trains run late most days for no reason, i gave up on public transport and i live 20 miles from the nearest train station..

    What a lovely trip. Thank you so much for showing us beautiful Japan in the winter time. It must have been a really fun trip, rattling (slightly) along in the cozy little train car with those gorgeous views…. (And the cute ‘whistle’ blowing when you go into a tunnel or under a bridge.)

    Must be difficult to live rural with that much snow fall. Seeing those houses in the distance just peeking out from the snow drifts. Shoveling all that snow must be very time consuming. Lol
