Tokaido Shinkansen Delayed Due to Heavy Snow
10:49 JST, January 10, 2025
Tokaido Shinkansen services have been operating at reduced speeds on some sections between Nagoya and Shin-Osaka stations from the first train on Friday due to heavy snowfall, according to Central Japan Railway.
As of 8:50 a.m., trains passing through the area are expected to be delayed by up to 50 minutes, and delays may increase depending on future snow conditions.
The delays are due to heavy snowfall in Maibara, Shiga Prefecture.
There is a possibility that delays will persist throughout the day, so the company urges passengers to check the latest status.
