Comfort and Speed

On March 1st the Odakyu railway company revealed the new 'Express Romancecar' train model, which connects Shinjuku station with Hakone-Yumoto station.

 

The new train

The train has a 400 passenger capacity and, in line with previous panoramic trains, features a 16-seat observation lounge at the front and at the back.

The cars are bright and airy. This feeling is reinforced by the large windows that allow you to admire the passing landscape. In addition, more space than in most other trains is available for storing luggage.
