Osaka Station 17:42 Limited Express Thunder Bird No. 37 bound for Kanazawa JR West 683 series train B40+R10 formation
The audio from the train window is recorded in high resolution using a linear PCM recorder.
This photo was taken on the last day of service to Kanazawa, the day before the timetable revision.
As the conductor announced, this is Japan's fastest limited express train, with a nominal speed of 106km/h.
It's a train that I have a lot of fond memories of, having ridden it many times and failed to photograph it many times, so I wanted to capture the last day's run on film.
Due to the delay of the preceding train, there was a maximum delay of 4 minutes along the way, but we arrived at Kanazawa 2 minutes late.
The departure scene of Shirasagi No. 66 towards the end of the video was taken by my nephew.
