JR Kyushu released statistics for ridership on the Kyushu Shinkansen in the six months since its full operation began in March. The number of passengers between Hakata and Kumamoto rose 38% from the previous year, when the fastest option was the limited express. While the increase was impressive, it fell short of JR Kyushu’s 40% target.
