		Ada had priced a the trip taking the Shinkansen to Kyoto and changing there, but it turned out we could take the Shink to the nearer Maibara station and transfer to the standard line there.
		We got the next Kodama out and it was about 20 minutes to Maibara, where there was no problem finding a fast train to Ohtsu, about 40 minutes.
		We then set off towards the station to get the Keihan streetcar, which actually ran across the road we were on.

		An hour 40 minutes from Maibara Station to Yokkaichi Station, transferring at Kibukawa Station to Shigaraki Station by Omi Tetsudo Line.
		The Old Nagahama Station Museum, which is the oldest station building in existence in Japan today, is a red-brick Western-style building of so modern a design for those days that it can be well imagined how surprising it was to the people of Nagahama in those days.
		On the site of the Nagahama Castle to the west of Nagahama Station is Ho Park known for cherry blossoms.

		Though this route is not without points of interest (such as the huge, tacky gold kannon statue at Kaga, a hot springs resort near the coast), you might do better to save time and effort by pedaling to Awara Onsen station (5 kilometers from the main highway) and heading home.
		From Tokyo, the best way is probably to take a shinkansen to Maibara just past Nagoya and then take a local (50 minutes) or tokkyu (30 minutes) to Tsuruga.
		Echizen is more fortunate than most bike routes, as the jumping-off point, Tsuruga, is a major station on the JR Hokuriku Honsen (the main line going up the Japan Sea coast).

	Planet Tono - Shinkansen
		Stations in black are stopped at by Kodama only.
		There are automated vending machines for the Shinkansen at Nagoya station, but it's easier to buy a through ticket from your local station which will take you all the way from there to your ultimate destination.
		When you get to the ticket gates, there will either be a member of station staff to give your tickets to (both of them!) or a sophisticated ticket machine that you put both tickets into at once - stack them on top of each other and put them in as if they were one.

		More: Hikone is about 2 1/2 hours from Tokyo station by Shinkansen (Kodama Bullet Train) to Maibara and then by local train or taxi.
		More: Nijo castle is most easily reached from Kyoto's Nijojo-mae station on the Tozai subway line (from Kyoto station, take the Karasuma subway line to Karasuma Oike station and transfer to the Tozai line).
		From the station the castle is a 15-minute walk, or take a bus to the Shosha Ropeway to reach Engyoji Temple.

		Our train stopped for 3 hours at the station as it was unable to travel to Nagoya as heavy rain had caused power failure at Nagoya Station.
		We didnt take any bus, as the were massive traffic jam and there were so many peoples walking to the station also at the same time.
		Everyone was exhausted from walking and once we reached the station, we were practically fatigue.

		From Tokyo, overnight tokkyu and kyuko express trains depart from Tokyo Station (or sometimes Shinagawa Station) late at night and arrive early in the morning at Maibara and stations further south on the lake.
		Note that the further south you go on the western coast, the worse the traffic gets; at some point before Otsu, you may decide to give it up and train home from one of the stations on the rail line that runs next to the road.
		It's also easy to get to from Nagoya; another shinkaisoku goes from Nagoya to Maibara, a few stops south of Nagahama.

	Pictures of Nagoya
		Several people told us that once we bought the first ticket at Hikone station we would need to pay for the full price, then get off at Maibara and transfer to a train to Nagoya.
		Once we arrived at Maibara station I was amazed at how large it was.
		Later we found that it connected to the subway, which has its own set of shops, and the train station as well.

	Randy's 'Favorite Getaways in Rural Japan' p 3
		Using the bullet train from Tokyo to Maibara is three and a half hours on the "local" Kodama train, but you can do it two and a half if you take the Hikari train and change at Nagoya to a Kodama, or find one of the few Hikari's that stop in Maibara (like the 7:30am).
		There is also a tourism bus that runs between Tojimbo, Awara Hot-Springs, and the famous Eihei-Ji monastery; it leaves Tojimbo every hour in the morning (starting at 9:50), returning from Eihei-Ji (via Awara Station) every hour in the afternoon until 5pm.
		When we were at the Awara On-Sen station, we saw a brochure for the Nagaya Pension, with pictures of an open-beam all-wood structure in the midst of a forest.

	My time as a JET - part seventeen
		That day I was accosted twice - once in Nagahama and once on the platform at Maibara station - by the same middle-aged Nova student wanting to practise his English.
		The area around the station was all crowd control, but if you headed right up or down to one end of the town it was more relaxed, with room to breathe and, once they got started around 6pm, nothing to stop you from mingling with the torch bearers.
		I got to Demachiyanagi station at 4.15pm and still had to queue for 40 minutes to get a train, and of course the trains (two carriages each on a mostly single-track line) were all packed solid.

		At the foot of the mountain is the seashore, and there you can see the 2nd oldest nuclear power station in Japan.
		We took Meishin Expressway to Maibara, and change to Hokuriku Expressway to get to Tsuruga Inter Change.
		There are more than 10 between Maibara and Fukui-Kita, but no such long ones like #1 / #2 tunnels in Kan-Etsu Expressway or Ena Mountain Tunnel.

	Liana's journal -- Japan Trip, Day 70: Tackling the transportation system
		When I got to the station, I asked someone if the train pulling up was the train to Hikone and was directed to the other side of the station, where I got on board a crowded train.
		Taking the first one means I hang out at Inae Station for much longer than such a puny little place warrants, and taking the second one means I have a two-minute window to get to the bus.
		From this point on I’ll be riding my bike back and forth, and right now it’s parked by the station waiting for me, but today there was nothing I could do but sit in the cold and work on some homework.

		It was customized about 20 years ago and ran from Maibara to Kanazawa(Where I lived in when I was in Kanazawa University) or Toyama, so I often took this curious commuter train.
		Also because there still remain bed-units over the seats and the windows are small, the room looks not so light although it runs in the daylight.
		Because "Type-583" was made in late 1960s, this train is about 40 years old.

	Second Week in Japan
		The hokuriku line stopped at Nagahama and we transferred again the stop at Maibara was very jerky and finnaly Hikone.
		So I rushed the family to Karasuma Oike station carrying Jennifer on my shoulders.
		On the way back there were some youths hanging around Nara Kintetsu station.

		2 hours 20 minutes from Tokyo station to Maibara Station by JR Tokaido Shinkansen Line.
		About 1 hour 5 minutes from Maibara Station to Fukui Station by JR Hokuriku Main Line.
		Fukui is also known for many traditional handicrafts, like the Echizen-yaki, one of the six oldest kinds of potteries in Japan and Echizen-washi (Japanese paper) with a history of 1500 years.

	SHINKANSEN
		If you have a Railpass, one good place to see the Shinkansen running at high speed is near the station of Maibara, just east of Kyoto, or at Himeji, neither of which is a stop for the Nozomi trains.
		I know that the first Nozomi out of Tokyo Station is typically a 500 Series and indeed does the Yokohama-Kyoto run 2 minutes faster than any other train.
		Since both the 500 and 700 series trains are now used for the Nozomi (super super express) trains, it can be tricky to spot the relatively rare 500 Series trains.

	Seishun Juhachi Kippu - Example Timetables
		The timetables show only the stations where a transfer is necessary and some of the major stations along the way.
		Note that the train leaves Tokyo shortly before midnight, which means that you have to pay the fare up to the first station reached after midnight, which happens to be Yokohama (450 Yen).
		If you catch the first train on the Tokaido Line, leaving Tokyo Station at 5:20 am, you can get as far as Kokura (Kitakyushu) on the island of Kyushu within one day.

		We decided to go to Maibara station, which we thought might've been closer than Hikone station.
		It was funny though, because we spent our entire time right in the vincinity of the train station, first at this department store called Comme Ca.
		We were pissed off that we had to skip out on our last few song selections, but we had to haul ass if we didn't want to stay until 6:00 in the morning when the trains started again.

		The total trip from station to station is about 2 hours.
		To get to Hikone from Osaka you take the JR to Maibara and get off at Hikone.
		Thankfully, outside most JR stations there is a tourist information booth where one of the staff may speak some English.
