The Shinkansen, or Bullet Train, Announcement
When I visit Japan, I take the Shinkansen between Tokyo Station and Shin-Osaka Station. I’m used to hearing the train announcements, but for those of you who have never taken a Shinkansen, here’s what they say on them.
As an example, this is the announcement you’ll hear after leaving Shin-Osaka Station on the Nozomi train bound for Tokyo:
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Shinkansen.
This is the Nozomi Super Express bound for Tokyo.
We’ll be stopping at Kyoto, Nagoya, Shin-Yokohama, and Shinagawa stations before arriving at Tokyo terminal.
Smoking is not allowed on this train except in the designated smoking rooms
located in cars 3, 7, and 15.
The smoking room in car number 10 is for passengers in the Green Cars.
Please refrain from smoking in the train, including the areas at either end of the cars.
The conductor’s room is in car number 8.
Hazardous items are prohibited on stations and trains.
If you notice any suspicious items or behavior, please notify staff immediately.
Thank you.
And this is the announcement played before arriving at Kyoto Station:
Ladies and gentlemen, we will soon make a brief stop at Kyoto.
Passengers going to the Tokaido, Sanin, Kosei, Nara, Kintetsu and subway lines, please change trains here at Kyoto.
Thank you.
If you’d like to listen to the actual announcements, you can find the video on YouTube.
