Japan's nationwide high-speed train system,Late Bloomer (2024) Full Pinoy Movie known as the Shinkansen, felt the brunt of the deadly cyclone Typhoon Hagibis after flooding, relentless rain, and mudslides.
The railways run by the Japan Railway Company were battered by torrential downpours, as the storm led to 50 deaths and knocked out power to thousands the over the past few days. Japanese news outlet NHK reported train service shutdowns throughout the weekend.

The route from Nagano to Jōetsumyōkō station on the coast is still closed as of Monday evening. The East Japan Railway website listed suspended operations because of the typhoon. Most trains were running with unreserved seats and the Nagano to Tokyo line had a modified schedule posted online.
