The Sanyo Shinkansen, one of Japan's major high-speed rail lines, has resumed full-scale operations across its complete network. The operations were previously halted due to undisclosed reasons but now, the situation is under control and trains are back running on their regular schedule. Travellers using the Sanyo Shinkansen can now enjoy uninterrupted service, marking a significant step towards restoring normalcy in the public transportation system.
In Japan, punctuality of public transport is highly valued and disruptions can have significant impacts on daily life and the economy. Therefore, the resumption of operations on the Sanyo Shinkansen is a much-welcomed relief for both daily commuters and travelers. Given the importance and reliance on public transportation, restoring service promptly is of the utmost priority.
In the US or EU, major public transportation disruptions are also considered serious events and usually generate significant media attention. However, unlike Japan where railway systems are often the backbone of public transportation, the US and EU have more diversified transportation systems and delay in one system might not cause a significant disturbance in overall transportation.
