Thanks for the follow-up. LapLap. Bargain fare, indeed.

I'd pay 35,000 yen for this pass if it were available for purchase for Japanese citizens.

So I’m very pleased the Hayabusa shinkansen will have full bogie covers.

Google helped me understand what you meant. The covers really look so. They are, reportedly, for reducing noises. 320km/h is JR's fastest operational speed, so they've installed various stabilizers and anti-noise equipments.
