Reserved space for large luggage on bullet trains

Photo taken on May 20, 2020, shows a luggage sizer placed at a shinkansen bullet train ticket gate at JR Tokyo Station. Tokaido, Sanyo and Kyushu shinkansen passengers with large luggage measuring more than 160 centimeters in total height, depth and width are required to make advanced reservations from the same day for the rearmost seats of cars so they can place their luggage in the space behind the seats.
