Tokyo → Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto → Sapporo

The experience going from Tokyo to Shin-Hakodate-Hokuto on the Hokkaido Shinkansen, covering over 800 km in just under four hours and then onwards to Sapporo on the Hakodate Main Line, covering just over 250 km in… just under four hours. It’s safe to say there’s no beating the Shinkansen for speed on the rails in Japan.
