		The Japan Railways Group, more commonly known as JR, is a government-subsidised group of eight private companies that took over most of the assets, operations, and liabilities of the government-owned Japanese National Railways on April 1, 1987.
		The JR Group lies at the heart of Japan's railway network, operating almost all intercity rail service (including the Shinkansen high-speed rail lines) and a large proportion of commuter rail service.
		The seven passenger operating companies of the JR group are separated by region, but many operate long-distance train service beyond their regional boundaries (the Tokaido Shinkansen, for instance, is operated by JR Central but extends to JR East and JR West stations).
