If you are a properly obsessed railfan then a trip to Japan is definitely on your bucket list, because the best of the old world trains and the new are still rolling along on the rails of Japan- and you can pretty much ride them all.
But you don't have to be a railfan to appreciate how cool it would feel to ride the ultra-luxurious Shiki-Shima Train Suite, check out the observatory cars that look like they're straight out of a sci-fi flick.
The Shiki-Shima also makes riders feel like royalty by providing private Suite and Deluxe Suite rooms that look bigger than many NYC apartments.
And let's not leave out the equally deluxe dining room, which is definitely the swankiest dining car you'll ever get drunk in while riding the rails.
