limited to its few stations only as the stations on conventional BG network cannot be used.

* Due to shorter average height of Japanese closer spacing of seats in Shinkanshen trains may not be convenient to Indians, else a seating capacity of 100 per coach of 25 M length is difficult with spacing provided in IR ACC coaches.
