The Shinkansen (Japanese: 新幹線, "Bullet Train") is an underground ice-highway network in Japan. It currently is one of the largest and best developed highway system on the server, conecting around 20 towns and spanning over 5000 blocks in total lenght.
History
In early 2019 Jaxosm, a Japanese player came up with the idea of an ice-road-network to connect major towns in Japan. He and FenZenyatta made a plan in February 2019 and soon started digging the first tunnels. Their lines mostly were 2 blocks wide, used normal ice and redstone torches. Many of the original tunnels still exist today and were renovated. In August of 2019 many of the tunnels were in bad shape or completely griefed. Taima_, mayor of Owari, came up with a design for the tunnels and started repairing them. The design was later adopted by many players. With the unification of Japan and KawadaJP becoming Prime Minister in February 2020 many still unfinished parts and lines were completed.
Design
Today nearly all of the tunnels are 3 blocks wide and use blue ice. All lines are build on the same Y-level 45.
