The Sanyo Shinkansen history. How were the route and station locations decided.

The Sanyo Shinkansen is the second Shinkansen to be extended from the Tokaido Shinkansen.

Since the construction of the Tokaido Shinkansen greatly exceeded the budget of the Japan National Railways, the construction was divided into two sections, Shin-Osaka to Okayama and Okayama to Hakata. It opened to Okayama in 1972 and to Hakata in 1975.

The Sanyo Shinkansen and the Tokaido Shinkansen, which opened in 1964, have many direct trains running, and it is operated as one line. However, there are many differences between these two Shinkansen lines.

Now, I will talk about the differences between the Tokaido Shinkansen and the Sanyo Shinkansen. And I will also explain about the routes and stations of the Sanyo Shinkansen.
