I know that you are a huge fan of the train service, and push it whenever travel in Japan comes up...
But in some cases it is a LOT cheaper to rent a car, plus you get the freedom that you do not with a train. Most of Japan outside of the cities does not have train service.
Imagine a 4 person family renting a car for the day to travel from, say, Tokyo to Nagano. That`s 9000 a person - but a car is 10000/day at the high end.
