Nearly 200 maintenance staff of JR West have undergone this strange training, the Daily Mail said.
JR West launched a training course to observe Shinkansen high-speed trains in 2016, following an accident in August 2015.
According to a spokesman for JR West, the purpose of the training is to teach maintenance staff about the importance of the work they undertake.
However, not everyone welcomes this idea."It was a terrible experience , " Tokyo Shimbun quoted an employee of JR West.
Another person described the feeling of sitting next to a railroad observing a high-speed train like "being beaten by a council".
Despite complaints from some employees, JR West said there was no plan to change the training course.
