Flying into OSAKA and looking to do a wee bit of traveling. Now been told there are limits on what trains i can use with a JR pass. From reading i cannot use the bullet trains. Now i read this
All JR Group Railways-Shinkansen"bullet trains" (except any reserved or non-reserved seat on “NOZOMI”and”MIZUHO”trains) limited express trains, express trains, and rapid or local trains. (With some exceptions) JAPAN RAIL PASS holders can also use the Tokyo monorail. Aoimori Railway services between Aomori and Hachinohe (but only for direct travel between these two stations on local or rapid services. Travel is not covered if you disembark at any other station on the Aoimori Railway line.)
Which says i can use Shinkansen"bullet trains".
Confused is there different bullet trains have i read the above wrong ? Can i use the JR pass to get to tokyo? How long does this take.
Sorry so many questions.
