Japan's Railroads, Moonlight Echigo, Jyoetsu Night Rapid.

Moonlight Echigo, Jyoetsu Night Rapid was begun to serve for people in Niigata Prefecture in opposition to night buses. In order to take passengers from the night buses, the train made available without express charge, becase fare of the section, between Shinjuku and Niigata, is more expensive than one of the buses.

Today, it is very useful to make your trip not only between Kanto (East) Region and one of all directions of Niigata Prefecture but also between East Region and Northeast Region by connection at Murakami or between East Region and Hokuriku (Japan Sea Coast) by connection at Nagaoka.
