Japan launches Hello Kitty bullet train

Paul Heymont 5/22/187:00 AM

A Hello Kitty bullet train, or shinkansen is the latest character-themed train to hit the rails in Japan, with the famous feline's image and bows all over the train.

The first car, "Hello! Plaza" features snacks and Kitty decor, with her dressed up in a train-crew uniform. The second car is a Kitty themed lounge, and all the coaches are decorated with pink accents and KItty-themed items.

The exterior of the train, which will run from Osaka to Fukuoka, is decorated with a long ribbon motif, clipped together with Kitty bows. For more pictures, from Japan Today, click HERE
