Japanese Locomotivating

Finns are skillful driving fast cars and speedy roads, but the local tracks don't cater to super fast trains. When desiring traveling the super-express trains, fastest in the world, the tracks lead to Japan.

It is no wonder Finland is often described as the Japan of Nordic countries. For a Finn there is something very pleasant and familiar in Japan for a Finn. Work is valued very high and high quality in everything is strived for. After the trip we are just waiting for the Finnish railway tracks to get to the level a superexpress train would require.
