...A Japanese main line railway with a maximum speed of over 200km/h. Its construction began in 1940 with the construction of an additional Shinkansen line between Tokyo and Shimonoseki (the bullet train plan). At the time, Japan's narrow-gauge (1067mm) railway network was almost complete, but plans were underway to build a new standard-gauge (1435mm) line with the ambitious goal of expanding the transport capacity of the Tokaido and Sanyo main lines and connecting with the continent. This plan called for a 15-year construction period, a maximum speed of 200km/h in the future, and grade-separated intersections with roads, which is similar to the current concept of the Shinkansen. *Some of the terminology that refers to "HST (railroad)" is listed below.
