Japan's latest high-speed rail extension will open tomorrow, 16 March 2024, on the Hokuriku Shinkansen line. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hokuriku_Shinkansen
However, the extension doesn't sit well with many people, mainly because of issues with its terminus, Tsuruga station, which I visited in February.
Come along and explore all about the extension, the new station, its main problems, and my takes on the matter.
