Shinkansen timetable alterations 2016/6/24 11:21
I have searched for a Hikari from Tokyo to Shin-Osaka around 6 pm of July 1, 2016, and there is non between 1703-2003!? Is there any drastic timetable change for the shinkansens? (Plan to use JRP).

I can see two - one at 17.03 and one at 20.33.

The current timetable is only valid up until June 30, though, so it may not be an accurate reflection of what trains are actually available. But there are usually less Hikari services since Nozomi is more popular with the locals.

I think you are referring to Hyperdia. Hyperdia is usually accurate, but sometimes fail to update. The most reliable timetabale is from the railway company, although it is not so convenient.

from 1st July to 30th September (westbound).

As you can see, there are

17:33 Hikari 523
18:03 Hikari 525
18:33 Hikari 527
19:03 Hikari 529
19:33 Hikari 531

between 17:03 and 20:03.
