TOKYO - Passengers on Japan’s super-fast bullet trains have long enjoyed ordering coffee, ice cream or boxed lunches from staff pushing a snack cart, savouring the treats as they whip past landmarks such as Mount Fuji.
Central Japan Railway said on Tuesday it would phase out the famed on-board snack cart services, offered by a uniformed vendor dispensing beverages and light refreshments, pushing their cart through the aisles of the moving train and bowing as they enter or leave the carriage. The online response was despondent. Within hours of the announcement, “Super-Cold Shinkansen Ice Cream” was trending fifth on the X platform formerly known as Twitter and “In-Train Service” sixth.“I remember that I enjoyed the ice cream every time I got on the train, and when I jumped on the last train without eating, I was saved by the sandwiches sold there,” one user said.
