Nagoya to Akashi Train
The route from Nagoya to Akashi is primarily served by the Shinkansen, specifically the Hikari and Kodama services. The Hikari train operates at a speed of up to 285 km/h (177 mph) and typically takes around 1 hour and 30 minutes to complete the journey, with fewer stops compared to the Kodama. The Hikari stops at major cities including Kyoto but bypasses some smaller stations along the route.
