The book also describes today’s highly evolved Shinkansen. The Shinkansen, which runs 440,000 km a day, has carried 13.3 billion people without a single fatality in 56 years. The book overviews factors that contributed to the Shinkansen’s high safety record. This book is an excellent guide for those interested in the history of the world’s first high-speed railway.

Oppdagelsen av Shinkansen: En reise gjennom tidene

Velkommen til Birth of the Shinkansen: The Origin Story of the World’s First Bullet Train. Denne fascinerende boken tar deg med på en reise tilbake til 1964, året da Japan revolusjonerte togtransport med sin høyhastighetsbane. Følg med på hvordan talentfulle ingeniører overvant enorme teknologiske barrierer for å realisere drømmen om det første hurtigtoget i verden.

Historien bak et ingeniørvidunder

I boken får du lære om bakgrunnen for Shinkansen, inkludert den urolige etterkrigstiden da Japan bygde seg opp igjen. I en tid der europeiske jernbaner strevde med hastigheter på 160 km/t, satte japanske ingeniører seg fore å sprenge barrierene for å nå over 200 km/t. De utnyttet innovative metoder uten hjelp av moderne teknologi for å gjøre dette til virkelighet.

En sikkerhetsstandard uten like

En av de mest imponerende aspektene ved Shinkansen er dens enestående sikkerhet. I over 56 år har det blitt fraktet over 13,3 milliarder reisende uten et eneste dødsfall. Boken utforsker de kritiske faktorene som har bidratt til denne imponerende sikkerhetsreksen – fra presisjon i drift til banens design.

Mer enn bare et tog

Birth of the Shinkansen er ikke bare en historisk gjennomgang; det er en hyllest til menneskets oppfinnsomhet. Med bilder, diagrammer og analyser gir boken deg en grundig forståelse av dagens høyteknologiske Shinkansen, som daglig renner gjennom Japan med 440.000 km og opprettholder en imponerende punktlighet.

Enten du er en togentusiast, historieinteressert eller bare nysgjerrig på hva som driver verdens mest effektive transportsystem, vil denne boken være et verdifullt tillegg til din samling.
