Shinkansen - bullet train

This is mean on the Shinkansen (Hikari) or bullet train to Shin-Osaka and then to change to another (Sakura) to Tokyo.
This is in the Green Car, and it's very nice. As you can see, this one is not so busy.
Many people go on the Nozomi Shinkansen, but you can't use these with a Japan Rail Pass. Which is no problem, but it does make these trains more likely to have less people on board when the Nozomi run on similar routes.
