雁木の街並みと旧今井染物店。
雁木は商店街のアーケードというよりも個々の商家と一体になっている感じ。昔からの雪対策なんでしょうね。

Train 44: a slightly different late-1990s JR East E653 Series, this one a Limited Express Shirayuki from Niigata to Joetsumyoko!

Cutting across from the Joetsu Shinkansen to the Hokuriku Shinkansen today — not sure it’s much faster than just changing in Takasaki, but it’s snowing quite prettily!

A mostly white electric multiple units train the front is quite curved and underneath the windows there are red and blue stripes. It has the look of a modern long distance train.

Same train looking along the carriages. there is an LED sign for joetsumyoko. The windows are quite large but not panoramic like a joyful train.

Interior, same train. The seats are in pairs and the moquette is red and brown in a chequered pattern. there is a yellow antimacassar headrest

Same train demonstrating reasonable legroom of somewhere around 45 inches of pitch.

Great day for it in Charmant Hiuchi.

【アクシデント】
はくたかから乗り換え、在来線特急に乗るはずの上越妙高でアクシデント。ここからがJR東日本エリアで、今回利用した大人の休日パス大人の適用領域に。
上越妙高駅はJR東日本とえちごトキめき鉄道が併設。特急はえちごトキめき鉄道のホームから発車なのだが、みどりの窓口での切符の発券（27日までの分まとめて）に手間取り、乗る予定だったしらゆき５号に乗車し損なう
なんとかリカバリーショットは打てたが、図らずも直江津と長岡での2回乗り換えを伴う各駅停車の旅。
これから4時間鉄路の旅だ。😑
