Rail buffs line up to take photos of East Japan Railway Co.'s luxurious Train Suite Shiki-shima (Four Seasons Island) running through the field in Nikko, northeast of Tokyo, Monday, May 1, 2017. JR East launched its 10-car all-suite sleeper train service Monday with only 17 rooms that can accommodate 34 passengers maximum for a four-day, three-night trip to popular tourist spots in Japan's northern areas including Kanto, Tohoku and Hokkaido. All the tickets have been sold out until March next year despite its high fare that ranges between 320,000 yen (US$3,360) for a two-day, one night trip and 950,000 yen ($9,980) for a four-day, three-night trip, according to the company.
