Express trains are high-speed trains designed to travel long distances quickly, making fewer stops than regular trains. They connect major cities and regions, allowing passengers to reach their destinations faster. These trains often feature comfortable seating, modern amenities, and sometimes onboard services like dining. Many express trains operate on dedicated tracks, which helps them maintain higher speeds. Examples include the Shinkansen in Japan and the Eurostar in Europe. These trains are popular for both business and leisure travel, providing an efficient alternative to flying or driving.
