Japan has launched a brand new 186mph luxury bullet train, complete with a business class carriage modelled on airliners. A network of cutting-edge Shinkansen train lines has been built up across Japan since the 1960s, and the island nation now hopes to sell the technology abroad. The latest ultra-fast train, called ‘Hayabusa’ or Falcoln, will make two trips a day between Tokyo and Aomori, a scenic rural backwater on the northern tip of the main Honshu island.
