Evangelion Shinkansen service takes off everyday until 2017!

This is never-before-seen images of the train’s interior, which includes Eva-themed seats and window blinds, and a designated “cockpit room”!



While the exterior is sure to turn heads, although at speeds of up to 300 kilometres per hour (185 miles), it’s more likely to look like a purple haze, it’s the interior of the carriages that’s guaranteed to make this a memorable trip for passengers.
First up, there’s a special Exhibition Room in the first carriage, with four points of interest: Shinkansen x Evangelion panel art; a photo area; a diorama display; and a life-sized cockpit. Everything here is exclusive to the 500 Type Eva, making this an extra special space for fans.


Knowing full well that everyone has their eyes on climbing into the Evangelion cockpit, passengers who want to experience the thrill will need to enter an online lottery one month to three days before their departure date. Travellers with their heart set on sitting in the pilot’s seat can book tickets as part of special tour itineraries that will soon be offered by travel agents.

The train will run from November 7 2015 to March 2017 and will be limited to two trips a day so if you want to hop on board the Eva 500, make sure you book a ticket for one of these journeys:
Hakata Station 6:36a.m. – Shin-Osaka Station 11:14 a.m. (Kodama 730)
or
Shin-Osaka Station 11:32 a.m. – Hakata Station 4:07 p.m. (Kodama 741).


【NOTICE】
Eva-themed seats are only in the 2nd car.
