	Osaka - Wikitravel
		Osaka is the largest of the Osaka-Kobe-Kyoto trio, and its inhabitants exhibit a friendly rivalry towards the Kanto region, from baseball, food, popular culture, even to which side they ride escalators (on the left in Tokyo, but on the right in Osaka).
		Kaiyukan (Osakako, Chuo Line) [6] is one of the world's largest aquariums, with 11,000 tons of water and plenty of sharks, dolphins, otters, seals, and other creatures of the sea.
		Osaka has a dangerous reputation (by Japanese standards), but is still remarkably safe for a city of its size, and the overall level of crime is as low as in Tokyo or other Japanese cities.

		Osaka really comes to life at night and nowhere is this more visible than in Dotombori, the area around Dotombori Canal and Dotombori Arcade, where there is so much neon, noise, bells, whistles and greetings all strobing away, it feels like you're inside a pinball machine.
		Osaka has made a speciality of creating land where previously there was none.
		The Osaka Aquarium is the main attraction of the area and one of Osaka's best - it has the largest aquarium tank in the world, with two frighteningly large whale sharks.

	Seishun 18 Ticket - Wikitravel
		Limited expresses on the Tsugaru-Kaikyo Line between Kikonai and Kanita stations; this is a very useful exception because it allows Seishun 18 holders to cross between the main island of Honshu and the northern island of Hokkaido through the world's longest undersea tunnel, the Seikan Tunnel.
		Limited expresses on the Sekisho Line between Shintoku and Shin-yubari, part of the route between Sapporo and Obihiro in Hokkaido.
		The Tokaido Line is undoubtedly the easiest line to travel with a Seishun 18 ticket, and probably one of the most convenient for tourists because it forms the shortest link between Tokyo and the Osaka-Kobe-Kyoto-Nara region.

		The Yamanashi Maglev test line, located in Yamanashi Prefecture, about 2-2.5 hours west of Tokyo by train or expressway, was approved for construction in 1989 with management by RTRI and JR.
		The Yamanashi test line is the first section of a new high speed railway, the Chuo Shinkansen line, that is being constructed between Tokyo and Osaka, inland from the present coastal Shinkansen line.

		So synonymous is the Chuo line with suicide, that a term has been coined - the chuocide.

		We had gotten another email from Kelly saying she actually could meet us in Osaka, so I ended up writing her one letting her know if she happened to be able to meet us that evening, that would be cool.
		We caught the Midosuji line south from Umeda two stops to Honmachi, then rode the Chuo line about five stops to Osakakoo, the end of the main municipal subway line.
		The Chuo line is confusing as it's a subway closer to the city, and an elevated train closer to the aquarium.

		Staying in Osaka at the Hilton is quite convenient in terms of Osaka station...you can easily hop a train to shin-osaka station to connect to the shinkansen.
		The end of the Yumesaki Line or the station at the intersection of the Loop Line and the Chuo Line Subway look to be the closest train stops to the peir, at least according to the port area map I found on the internet.
		Tempozan is the port area where the Osaka Aquarium is. There is no JR station so to speak....you'll need to take subway if you want it to be a train.

		Lake Suwa is right on the Chuo Main Line (and the Chuo Expressway), and Matsumoto is a bit north on a main connecting line.
		Matsumoto is just north of Shiojiri, the transfer point between the western and eastern legs of the Chuo Main line which takes the mountain route between Tokyo and Nagoya.
		This is the Western leg of the Chuo Line and, coming from Tokyo, you will normally have to change trains at Shiojiri, near Matsumoto.
