Hi Ingle,

Do you mean Asahikawa in Hokkaido? If so, the trip by rail will take a whopping 684mins (11.5hrs). I recommend flying to Sapporo (New Chitose) from a Tokyo airport rather than taking the train for this large trip, unless you are thinking of splitting your journey in two.

Hope this helps!
