When first introduced, they were used on the fastest ''Nozomi'' services, being capable of . As more were delivered (66 trains by 1998) they replaced earlier units on ''Hikari'' service and allowed the thus displaced 100 series units to finally in turn displace 0 series units on almost all services. With the introduction of newer 700 series and N700 series equipment, the 300 series sets were gradually demoted to slower ''Hikari'' and ''Kodama'' services, and were completely withdrawn from Tokaido and Sanyo Shinkansen services by the start of the revised timetable on 17 March 2012. ==Design== The front-end styling of these units consisted of a 'curved wedge', replacing the aircraft-style nose-cones of previous Shinkansen trains. The furthest forward point was the very bottom of the pilot. They were painted brilliant white with a medium-thick blue stripe beneath the windows. They were only formed as sixteen-car sets and had no restaurant cars, though they did originally feature two refreshment counters (later removed). Technically, they are notable for being the first Shinkansen sets to employ three-phase AC traction motors instead of direct current units, as well as new bolsterless bogies to reduce weight. The 300 series was awarded the Laurel Prize in May 1993.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「300 Series Shinkansen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
