なぜ新幹線駅と中心駅は別々になった？街の外に造られた日本の駅9選【ゆっくり解説】

After getting off the Shinkansen, it's about 13 kilometers to the central station of that prefecture. Why were stations, which are supposed to be the gateway to a town, built so far from the town center? You might think, "Politicians forced it," "The land was cheap," or "They couldn't bend the line through the city center." Certainly, those factors played a role in some stations. But there are many stations that can't be explained by those reasons alone. A town that added a station 24 years after the tracks were built. A region where a station was placed on the border of two cities. There's even a town where the gateway was built in a different city, 18 kilometers away from the central station. The time period and conditions for determining the location of old stations and Shinkansen stations were different. Does the Shinkansen station you know fall into this category of nine? ▼Related Videos Top 10 Station Fronts That Were Once the Center of Town...
