List of JR Shikoku’s limited express trains

List of JR Shikoku’s limited express trains

Ashizuri 

 
Following on from “List of local railways with less than 1,000 daily passengers,” we will be compiling a list of all express trains in Japan, from JR Hokkaido to JR Kyushu, in sequence.
 
The greatest pleasure of train travel is enjoying the scenery from the train window. In particular, express trains have long intervals between stations so that you can enjoy beautiful landscapes continuously for a long time. Travelers can enjoy the beautiful scenery because most limited express trains have seats for two people or box seats, unlike the long seats common on regular trains.
 
Eating and drinking are also easier on express trains, as they are two-seaters or box seats. It is a pleasure to eat “Ekiben (train lunch)” and drink sake (locally brewed sake), Japanese wine, or craft beer with a view of the countryside on train travel. You can never experience this pleasure when driving a rental car.
 
Limited express train stations are often relatively large towns, even in the countryside. It is fun for travelers to get off the train on the way and stroll the local shopping streets.
 
Furthermore, rail travel is a practice of sustainable tourism. According to 2019 data from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism, the CO2 emissions per kilometer traveled by one person are 98 g (75% of car emissions) for airplanes, 57 g (44%) for buses, and 17 g (13%) for trains, compared to 130 g for cars.
 

We feature the limited express trains of JR Shikoku this time, the smallest of the six JR companies with a total operating kilometer of 853.7 km, less than half the 1,982.0 km of fifth-placed JR Tokai.

It is also the only company that does not operate a Shinkansen line. For this reason, it is a unique company that runs a ‘railway hobby train,’ a train that imitates a Shinkansen. The cartoonist Takashi Yanase grew up in Kochi Prefecture, so the company also runs an ‘Anpanman train’ as a tribute to him.

Shikoku has no government-designated cities and is a depopulated region. For this reason, almost all of JR Shikoku’s limited express trains run through the wilderness, making it possible to enjoy various landscapes. We encourage you to take a JR Shikoku limited express train and visit these wonderful places.

JR 四国的特快列車列表

繼上一次的「List of local railways with less than 1,000 daily passengers毎日客運量低於1000人次的地方鐵路列表」、我們製作了特快列車的列表。從JR北海道到JR九州,我們會依次介紹日本各地所有的特快列車。
 
鐵路旅行的最大樂趣就是欣賞車窗外的風景。 尤其是特快列車的停站間隔較長,可以有較長時間欣賞沿路風景。 另外,與一般列車的長形座位背向窗戶不同,特急列車的雙人座位或是包廂的座位旁均設有窗戶,讓您可以欣賞美麗的景色。
 
一邊品嚐充滿當地特色的鐵路便當,品味日本酒(在地酒)、日本葡萄酒、及精釀啤酒。搭乘日本鐵道旅行,能夠讓你擁有自駕旅行時無法體驗到的樂趣,而且在郊外搭乘鐵道旅行時,絕對不會遇上像鬧區尖峰時段般的蜂湧人潮。
 
而且就算在郊外地區,特快列車停靠的幾乎都是較大型的城市或車站,因此中途下車後到訪車站前的商店街裡散步也是很不錯的旅行選擇。
 
使用鐵路作為旅行的交通工具,也能夠實踐永續環保的理念。根據日本國土交通省的資料顯示,自行開車時,每行駛1公里的每人二氧化量排放量為130克,而搭乘飛機時為98克(自行開車的75%),搭乘巴士為57克(自行開車的44%)、搭乘鐵路則為17克(自行開車的13%)。
 
這次我們會介紹JR四國的特快列車。總運營距離排名中,對比起第5位的JR東海的1,982.0 km, JR四國只有853.7 km,是6個JR 營運公司中規模最小的公司,也是唯一沒有營運新幹線的公司。因此JR四國有著各種模仿新幹線的列車・「鐵路愛好列車」的的特點。同時麵包超人的作者・漫畫家柳瀨孝是在高知縣長大,因此當地也在運行麵包超人的主題列車。
 
此外因為四國沒有政令指定城市,是人口減少問題的地區。但同時幾乎所有的JR四國特急列車都在大自然環境中運行,能讓各位可以欣賞到各種各樣的風景。因此請一定要體驗乘坐JR四國的特快列車,暢遊四國的各個地方。
