		<description><![CDATA[No it doesn&#039;t say that at all. It says that, as usual, you cannot use the nozomi through Kyushu, but you can use Hikari, Tsubame and others. But apparently it&#039;s fine to use the shinkansen from Osaka to Hakata. We definitely plan on doing this in a few weeks.

And no, back then I didn&#039;t take the shinkansen to Hakata, but to Kokura which is of course closer to Osaka. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Are you saying that you took the Shinkansen from Shin-Osaka to Hakata station? Because JR&#039;s English Rail Pass website claims the rail pass is not valid for that shinkansen, nor is it valid for the Kyushu shinkansen. 


Other trains, yes, no problem. But my friends from Kitakyushu (50+) usually responded weird when I said I would use the Rail Pass on the shinkansen from Shin-Osaka to visit them. And that&#039;s around the time I discovered that bit on their website.]]></description>
