Running at about 320 km/h, the shinkansen is known for its punctuality (like most Japanese trains it departs on time by the second).
It's very comfortable (relatively silent cars) with spacious seats, always forward facing.
Thanks to the Japan Rail Pass, the shinkansen can also be a very cost effective means of travel.
