Mihara to Yokohama Train
The Mihara to Yokohama route is serviced primarily by the Super Express and local train services. The Super Express, also known as the Shinkansen, can reach speeds of up to 240 km/h (149 mph) and offers a direct journey that typically takes around 3 hours and 30 minutes, making limited stops at major stations such as Hiroshima and Hakata. This service connects larger urban centers efficiently, ensuring a swift travel experience.
Alternatively, local trains on this route, such as the Sanyo Line, travel at lower speeds ranging from 80 km/h to 120 km/h (50 mph to 75 mph) and take considerably longer, often exceeding 5 hours due to numerous stops along the way.
