[Japan] 500 Series Shinkansen Technology [High-speed Train]
The 500 series is a Shinkansen high-speed train type operated by West Japan Railway Company (JR West) on the Tōkaidō Shinkansen and Sanyō Shinkansen lines in Japan. They were designed to be capable of 320 km/h (199 mph) although they currently operate at a maximum of 285 km/h (177 mph) in service. The running gear utilizes computer-controlled active suspension for a smoother, safer ride, and anti-yaw dampers are fitted between cars for improved stability. All sixteen cars in each train are powered, giving a maximum of 18.24 MW (24,460 hp). Each train costs an estimated 5 billion yen, and only nine were built. JR西日本のフラッグシップトレイン500系
