Les trains japonais sont réputés pour leur ponctualité incroyable—ils ne sont presque jamais en retard ! 🚄 Le secret ? Tout repose sur une précision et une planification extraordinaires. Chaque train a un horaire strict à la seconde près, et le personnel est formé pour s'assurer que tout fonctionne comme sur des roulettes. 🕒 Même lorsqu'il y a un retard (ce qui est extrêmement rare), ils l'annoncent immédiatement, et c’est généralement d’une minute ou deux. De plus, le système ferroviaire est si bien entretenu que les problèmes techniques sont minimes. Honnêtement, le Japon a élevé la ponctualité des trains au rang d’art !

00:00In 2017, a Japanese railway company made an official apology for the departure of a train with 20 seconds ahead of schedule.

00:09Passengers had barely noticed that the Tsukuba Express had left the eastern Tokyo station at 9h44m20s instead of 9h44m40s.

00:20But punctuality, second to last, is so crucial in this country that the company was in a hurry to comment on the incident.

00:28She explained her mistake, considered too funny to be true by many netizens, by the fact that the crew had not checked the time and had made the departure operation.

00:40Japanese railways have existed for more than 140 years. This gave them time to acquire enough know-how to perfect the system.

00:50The very first train journey in the country took place from Tokyo to Yokohama. It transported dignitaries of all ranks, including the emperor himself.

00:58The locomotive, wagons and even rails had to be shipped from the United Kingdom.

01:04The journey lasted 53 minutes, almost twice as long as today. There was practically no convenience, not even toilets.

01:12Despite everything, it was a success, and the first private Japanese railways began to take shape.

01:18At the beginning of the 20th century, after massive delays on the lines, the authorities resumed control.

01:24A designated research office improved the efficiency of locomotive boilers and developed rust-resistant materials, as well as a special type of paint to discourage bees from building hives.

01:35It posed major problems for the braking system. However, the trains were rather slow. The 482-kilometer journey between Tokyo and Osaka lasted more than seven hours.

01:46The railways were often winding, following the course of the rivers, and did not constitute the shortest path from point A to point B.

01:54Service interruptions were frequent. The meager salary increases of workers led to organized strikes, slowdowns and resignations.

02:03Trains were not a reliable war. This is probably the reason why cars and planes gained so much popularity.

02:09Everything changed thanks to the 1964 Summer Olympics. Japan had to show the world that it was a connected and progressive nation, and the existing railway system did not convey this message.

02:22The authorities therefore invested a lot of money in their high-speed network, the Shinkansen.

02:27To begin with, they had to build new tracks, exclusively for the new maglev, the magnetic suspension train. Thus, high-speed trains would not be slowed down by ordinary trains.

02:38Shinkansen tracks are made up of continuously welded rails. Unlike ordinary tracks, whose segments are bolted to each other,

02:46the tracks without connection involve less friction, which allows trains to reach higher speeds. And the lines also require less maintenance.

02:56These ultra-fast trains operate thanks to superconducting magnets. When you let an electric current pass, you get a very powerful magnetic field.

03:06But there is a hitch. The more current passes, the more the magnetic field heats up, and the efficiency decreases.

03:14Just like your phone charger that gets hot, you can put that on the account of electrical resistance.

03:20The magnet must therefore be cooled to minus 268 degrees Celsius. This creates a powerful and constant magnetic field.

03:29These superconducting magnets are used with cooling units throughout the length of the train.

03:35But this is only half of this truly magical system. The other half is hidden in the guiding rails.

03:43The rail magnets have the shape of a O, and alternate between the north and south poles. They align on the train's magnets.

03:51When their polarities match, the magnets repel each other. This generates a force of propulsion that makes the train move.

03:59By modifying the polarity of the magnets inside the train, it is possible to control the speed.

04:05The more frequent the polarity changes, the faster the train goes.

04:10Today, Japan's largest railway company transports an average of 14 million passengers a day.

04:19The average delay of a high-speed Shinkansen train is about 20 seconds. And we are still trying to reduce this figure to zero.

04:27The reason is not only the technical perfection of the trains and the tracks, but also the Japanese mentality.

04:34The collective rules and the well-being of the whole society are extremely important for the local population.

04:41They respect order and discipline in order to minimize any uncertainty about their future.

04:47Japan, being located in an area where earthquakes are frequent, these two values are literally saving.

04:55For Japanese railway workers, working hard is a priority.

04:59The train leaders, drivers and staff work as a team and rely on human interaction in many ways.

05:07They have a whole system of gestures and calls that they use in the exercise of their functions.

05:12This is what is called pointing and calling. And this reduces work errors by 85%.

05:19Thus, they do not just perform their tasks perfectly. They point and announce what they are doing in order to avoid any error.

05:27A train driver who performs a speed control will point to the screen and say, speed control, 80.

05:34A station attendant will show the way and wave his arm along the platform to communicate that no passenger or luggage has fallen

05:41and is not likely to hang on to the closed door of the train before departure.

05:46The training of the staff is quite rigid and gives very good results.

05:51All high-speed train drivers know how to get the train to the station in the 5 seconds following the planned arrival

05:58and how to stop it less than 1 meter from the designated stop.

06:02When it arrives in Tokyo, the train has only 12 minutes before departing in the opposite direction.

06:092 minutes are dedicated to the disembarkation of passengers and 3 minutes to the boarding of new passengers.

06:15The cleaning team therefore has only 7 minutes to do their job.

06:20Only one person takes care of a car with a hundred seats and manages to obtain irreproachable cleanliness.

06:26The team's work is at its best.

06:29If speed is not your cup of tea, you may enjoy the express glacier more than the ultra-fast Japanese trains.

06:37It is officially the slowest express train in the world, which travels a distance of 290 km in 8 hours.

06:46It crosses the Swiss Alps and crosses nearly 300 bridges.

06:50You will see mountain forests, alpine meadows, streams, the arches of a famous viaduct, lakes, glaciers and peaks.

06:59Cambodian railways used to have a funny feature.

07:04Passengers had to literally disassemble and reassemble the trains.

07:08Bamboo trains, called Nori, transported a dozen passengers, cattle and other goods from one small village to another.

07:16A Nori was made up of a single platform made up of a large bed and a lawn mower engine or boat, which allowed it to reach a speed of 40 km per hour.

07:26When two Noris met on the same line, the lighter one stopped.

07:30Drivers and passengers disassembled it and let the bigger one pass.

07:34They reassembled it later, in less than a minute.

07:38Today, the Nori is no longer than a tourist attraction, with Cambodia adopting more efficient trains.

07:46If you have about $ 5,000 to spend on a 4-day trip through the tourist sites of India, the Maharajas Express luxury train is made for you.

07:57This moving palace crosses the northwest and the center of India and passes through most of the country's main tourist sites.

08:05It is made up of 23 wagons, including bunk wagons, a restaurant wagon, a bar, a living room, a generator and a shop wagon.

08:14The presidential suite occupies a whole wagon, but it is slightly more expensive, almost three times more expensive than the cheaper option.

08:22The most dangerous railway in Japan, and probably all over the world, runs along the outskirts of Mount Aso, the country's largest active volcano.

08:30You never know when it will wake up.

08:33So if you buy a train ticket, it may come with a bonus, allowing you to be in the front row to watch a magnificent natural spectacle.

08:42You can see lava rivers and the top of the volcano boiling from the comfort of your seat.

08:48A part of the itinerary passes through a high iron bridge, which is narrow and devoid of barriers.

08:54All you need is a false movement for the train to end up in the abyss.

08:58Would you take this risk? Tell us everything in the comments below.
