Shinkansen Trains

Japan's high-speed trains, which began running in 1964 and set the pattern for high-speed rail around the world. An entry belongs here when the cited article calls the train a Shinkansen type. It excludes European and Chinese high-speed trains. Entries are placed by what their own cited article says, so each one sits in the narrowest group its source supports, and the group page lists it beside the other members. It is one of the groups under the Passenger Rolling Stock and High-Speed Trainsets subcategory of the Transport atlas, which has its own browse page listing every group and member.
