    This.
    This is exactly one of the videos I needed. From directing us to the official site (so many fake copycat sites out there), to how to pick it up and use it; so much useful advice for first time visitors to Japan. Thank you very much.
    Also, special thanks for the Navitime page mention. I was running into this exact issue while using google maps to plan out our route through the 4 cities we'll be visiting, since it doesn't filter JR lines specifically. I'll be sure to double check the work and make appropriate adjustments.
    Cheers!
