From Wikipedia
The Komachi (Japanese: こまち) is an express high-speed Shinkansen service operated by East Japan Railway Company (JR East) between Tokyo and Akita in Japan since March 1997. It is the only Shinkansen service that runs on the Akita Shinkansen, and uses E6 series trains. Between Tokyo and Morioka, it is typically coupled to a Hayabusa service train to travel over the Tōhoku Shinkansen. After Morioka, the Komachi service continues along standard gauge tracks that were converted from narrow gauge. Because it then runs on tracks that have grade crossings, its maximum speed from Morioka to Akita is 130 kilometres per hour (80 mph), compared to 320 km/h (200 mph) on the Tohoku Shinkansen. The Komachi service was named after a famous poet from the area, Ono no Komachi, whose name (小町) is also synonymous with "belle" or "beauty" in Japanese.
