Japan: Hamanasu night express train service status

9/30/2015 1:35:22 AM

The Hamanasu runs every day. As indicated at the bottom of the page on Hyperdia, it is presently current only up to September 30. If you do a search on or before September 30, the Hamanasu appears. Also, in order to go to Aomori from Tokyo, you need the Hayabusa.

EDIT: Hyperdia has been updated yesterday (September 29), and now the Hamanasu does appear with the search settings in OP plus the Hayabusa.

According to the PDF:

  • express trains Hakucho no. 71, Hakucho 77, Hakucho 78, and Hakucho 78 run only on specified days (weekends and long weekends), while other Hakucho trains, like no. 22 or 90, operating at different hours run daily)
  • night sleeper Cassiopeia runs only on days specified on the last page
  • night express Hamanasu (column “3”) runs between Aomori and Sapporo daily

PDF does not mention New Year period as it shows only schedule until Nov 30th.

PDF also does not mention shorter stop in Aomori until Sep 30th. I checked current schedule and it shows 6:19 arrival today, so it seems PDF is accurate.
