If you going by 2nd week of November, you need thicker jacket. 70% you will saw snow at Murodo & Kurobe Dam. Scenic view will be yellow tree + snow

Yes Normal Train, but Express Type. It will stop at Big Station only.
Normal Train which similar like our KTM Commuter. Buy Train ticket and board the train. Find any empty seat, If seat all full, you need standing all the way.

Another one was Limited Express Train, Traveler speed normally at 120km/h while normal train just 60km/h. Stop at Major Station only.

[[Because the Limited Express train didn't stop at Kintetsunara Station, So you have to get down at Yamat Osaidai Station first. thne change to normal train / normal train "Express" to Kintetsunara Station]]

Limited Express normally have 4 Coach, 1 1st Class , 2 Reserve Seat Coach, 1 Non Reserve Seat Coach. (JR Train)
If you buy Train Ticket only, you can board the Train but only limited at non reserve seat coach. If coach seat is full, you need standing all the way. Even you found seat, as long you leave your seat, someone will take over it.

Kansai Thru Pass not covered Kintetsu Limited Express. You have to top up money for train ticket and reserve seat.
Kintetsu limited express require all passenger must buy reserve seat ticket.

Yes
kansai Thru Pass can Ride Kintetsu Normal Train as long not Limited Express Train.

Yamagata got alot thing to do. But you havent discover it yet.

Yes.
Japan all Sleeper train I already try.
If you want to try better experience it fast, because it going to phase out one by one.

If you buy high end sleeper compartment, It will give you shower card. Using this shower card to activated shower system, 15 minute usage time, once time up, system will deactivated, water and light will be out. Every good experience, Shower against time!!

JR Rail Pass plus 9500 yen for Single Twin room. This means 1 room 2 bed, you maybe share room with stranger.

Or 17000 for single room

If JR rail pass without top up are Shinobi Room, basically are sleep on floor. Very hard wood floor.

One small correction here. They are Japanese which taking mandarin language course.
Because of China tourist big spending at Japan, everyone want to earn China tourist money.

Working at Japan are big competitive, have to keep on upgrade your self, learning another language will secure your place in company. Mandarin & Arabic language course are most popular in Japan now.

LOL, Nagoya took me 2 years to exploring it. Within this 2 year, Every Sat & Sun took train / Bus from Tokyo to Nagoya to complete my research.

I used to do this when I was Thread Starter. Since I no longer, I withdraw everything away already.
I always wish someone can continue doing it. Maybe Chinti can do this way on Page 1. I saw Chinti got passion about this thread.

Inuyama , Expo Memorial Park + Linimo Train. I also basically get off every station in Nagoya. Explore every metro / train station in Nagoya, finding any interest food or stuff
