Take the wheel on a drive at 500 km/hour?!

Of particular interest among visitors is the cutting-edge technology of superconducting maglev, or SCMAGLEV. Not only is an actual train car which holds an international record speed available to view but you can learn how it moves and hovers above the tracks in an easy-to-understand way. JR (Japan Railway) Tokai is the proud user of this tantalizing technology and allows you to experience it in this park, which it operates. Get behind the controls as you drive it in a simulation at 500 kilometers per hour! And there are other exciting experiences to be had as well.

Have lunch on a N700 bullet train

It's one thing to gaze upon these beautiful train cars from the outside, but you absolutely have to check out the inside of those you can climb aboard. Children and adults alike are sure to love climbing in the cockpit with simulators available to all on a first-come, first-come basis for a small fee. This lets you experience the beloved trains at an even deeper level like nowhere else.
Learn about the railroad mechanisms and the story behind the shinkansen's birth at special areas along the way too. Plus, while you can't bring food or drink in, you can certainly enjoy a bento box lunch purchased in the SCMAGLEV and Railway Park inside an N700 bullet train on display outside.
And even the little tikes can have a terrific time with a kids' play space for children younger than elementary school ages and their parents.
