The first of Taiwan High-Speed Rail's 12 new N-700-S-T trainsets has departed Japan aboard a cargo ship bound for Kaohsiung Port, where it is expected to arrive on August 15th.
The 12-car train is the first of the new fleet, which will be introduced in stages from July 2027 through September 2028.
T-H-S-R has also launched an online "voyage log" (or vlog if you will) documenting the train's journey from Japan to Taiwan, allowing the public to follow its progress and countdown to its arrival.
