I photographed the arrival and departure scenes at the Shinkansen platform at Morioka Station in Iwate prefecture Japan.
Two lines, the Akita Shinkansen and the Tōhoku Shinkansen, run through the Shinkansen platform at Morioka Station, where Hayabusa (E5 series) and Komachi (E6 series) trains are coupled and uncoupled.
The Akita Shinkansen runs on the same tracks as local lines from Akita to this station, but coupling with the Tōhoku Shinkansen at this station and runs on an elevated track dedicated to the Shinkansen from this station to Tokyo.
