Description

Big in Japan.

The E4 series (E4系) is a high-speed shinkansen train type operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East) in Japan. They were the second series of completely bi-level Shinkansen trainsets to be built in Japan (the other being the E1 series). E4 series trains feature double-decker cars to accommodate additional commuter traffic around Tokyo and other urban areas.

Two eight-car sets can be coupled together for extra capacity: a sixteen-car E4 series formation trainset carries a total of 1,634 seated passengers - the highest-capacity high-speed rail trainset in the world.

Acknowledgements

Project took approx 2 fulltime weeks to complete. wilson_komachi provided blueprints, without them it would be more difficult to finish it due to the complexity of the train. onedollalama also sponsorized the project development.

Great thanks to both. If you have any request, refer request form located on my Steam profile.

This is an amazing model. I use it for my intercity trains.
Is there any chance, any at all, that you will model the E351 "Super Azusa"? It's so outrageously 90's I would love to put it in my city.

I see, hopefully there are some wonderful station makers that can make some station that could fit these beautiful trains. It just I am by no mean an artist nor architect master myself. There was one station that could fit most of these train but some dependicies went missing thus, had to remove it from my subscription.

Not sure where the problem is.

I always release shortes one possible for vanilla size stations. For people who want longer variants, there's 8 car or longer editions. These trains can fit into most of the vanilla stations, with little to none effort. In case of dangling, you can use move it mod to extend station tracks a bit further to fix it.

There's also XL edition, where train is full IRL lenght that will require to use tutorial to create a custom station to fit it properly.

Basically I always release trains that will cover different types of users.

As for personal taste, i find 3 car shinkansens more immersion breaking than weird switching that might occur once. Even this can be solved, if you use loop configuration (meaning trains dont go reverse but circles line instead).

@REV0
Unfortunately, there is not a lot of station that can suppose these trains length. At most the 4 or six cars are what most train ingame custom or vanilla can support. Anything just break the immersion for me. I understand not all station are created but when partial or half the train is dangle outside of the stop length, It just look weird for me.
