Transport safety board begins probe into shinkansen power failure

Photo taken Aug. 9, 2015, shows a scarred car of the Sakura 561 bullet train that has been stopped since it came to an emergency stop a day earlier due to a power failure. The Japan Transport Safety Board launched an investigation on Aug. 10 into the power failure on the train running in southwestern Japan. An aluminum panel had fallen off the second car of the eight-car train and apparently hit the train body, according to West Japan Railway Co. (Kyodo) ==Kyodo
