Trip Tokyo to Kyoto.
 

I travel from Tokyo to Kyoto. What is the name of the train traveling at night? There is another option than the Shinkansen? Where I buy? What is the name? I don't want to spend to much money for the train. Thanks. PILI

The Ginga overnight express Tokyo to Kyoto was discontinued in 2008. It will cost a lot of money, but you still can go overnight. You'll still have to use the Shinkansen, though.

From Tokyo Station, take the final Joetsu Shinkansen departure towards Niigata, and change at Nagaoka (長岡) station for the Kitaguni (きたぐに) express train to Kyoto. The Kitaguni has unreserved standard class seating, reserved green car seating, and couchettes; all seating is non-smoking.

It is expensive.

I would take the bus if I were you. It will be much cheaper.

I also like taking the bus. very crowded and very cheap: D
