    This is my report from a trip on the JR Hamakaze train. Only one of these a day goes from Tottori down to Osaka. And it's not the quickest route there - other services get you there faster and leave several times a day. So why exactly does this mysterious limited express service still exist? That's what I wanted to find out! So I got a reserved seat one day on the Hamakaze and we set out, along the Sea of Japan, down through lush Hyōgo Prefecture on the obscure, winding Bantan Line, to Himeji. There, I got a welcome surprise about the view out my window for the final hour, when the train goes along the Seto Inland Sea to Osaka.
    A great day seeing the misty mountains and gorgeous green river valleys of central Honshū in the best way: on a reliable little Japanese train!

    Had a chuckle when there were no means to dry the hands. Thanks for not using the curtains. LOL

      I had lunch at Tottori station the other day in a tiny non-touristy soba noodle place where you buy a ticket from the machine out front of what you want. And even THEY were selling their own little towels with the logo inside! Two for ¥600. I didn't get them, but you're right, towel collectibles are quite a thing here

    Love these train travels and the lesser taken routes. All great ideas for my next trip there. 10/10.

    I'll take this train soon but getting on at Kinosaki :)
    Also, many Japanese carry their own small towel with them to dry their hands

    Interesting how the bananas are individually packaged especially when you consider that nature individually packaged them anyway.

      Japan loves its packaging - almost as much as the products themselves :/

      It's all me -- I think this video was done with an iPhone on a selfie stick. More recent videos have been with a DJI Pocket 2

    I'm fascinated by how distinctly different the landscape looks, at least to my (west coast of Canada) eyes. Curious haystack mountains and seastacks---beautiful. Thanks for sharing your trip!
