The family trip to major city and party train idea is good.

We could partner with the Central Japan Railway Company and bring a 0 Series Shinkansen out of retirement to use as the Party Train. For South Korea, we could partner with Korail and have a EMD SDP28 pull a 361000 series EMU (via an temporary adapter coupler) for the Party Train. The use of a commuter EMU being pulled by a long-distance locomotive sounds good. However,  I think there's no hope left in the 0 Series or any of the "original" bullet trains. But the idea of having a slower EMU being pulled by a long-distance engine sounds good.

Spanner in the works: Japanese main lines are narrower than Shinkansen lines. Import an EMU from another country?
