I had not been aware that there were high speed maintenance trains, but of course this makes sense; how else to detect problem areas unless a high speed train is traveling down the high speed tracks. I guess that in part explains the impeccable safety record of the Shinkansen trains.
As for the image; I really like your shot. The bright yellow train set amongst all of the piping and cabling that frame the image work well. Nicely done!
