Hopkins and the Bullet Train

Have you seen Hopkins?  
He's in Musashi-kosugi Stn., Kanagawa, Japan!



Hopkins watched the bullet train speed by!
This train is the Nozomi Shinkansen. Nozomi means HOPE. Shinkansen is the type of train. While it is called bullet train in English, Shinkansen would be literally translated is "new main train line".

Do you know the sign for train? Rachel will teach it to you here.
This is the Japanese sign for Shinkansen. It shows the long, thin those that is a characteristic of the shinkansens.
