Hi, sorry to interrupt.

I would like to check this out ..

Can JR Pass be used for the trains listed below?
Trans-Kyushu Express, Isaburo-Shimpei, Hayato No Kaze, Ibusuki No Tamatebako & 885 Kamome?

Do I need to make a reservation before the day i get on? or
Can I make a reservation at the station b4 i get on? ^_^

Thank you very much for your help. :)

Hi There!

Looks like you are planning on a nice trip and Yes you can ride all those trains with the JRPass!
I am wondering, as you know all the trains names, is the main purpose of your trip to ride all the trains?

You don't need to make a reservation the day before but like all trains, if you are traveling during a busy period it is recommended!

While you are in the Area don't forget to visit an Onsen in Beppu and if you can Climb Mount Aso!

Excellent answer Daniel!

@leng - You can make seat reservations just before boarding, it's usually worth making them if you are a JR Pass holder as they are free :)

Hope this helps!
