I know we may chuckle at this, but Jaoanese trains are extremely punctual. It's something the American flying public, or heaven help the Amtrak public are nowhere near accustomed to.
Our lazy asses just accept it here, where in Japan it is not accepted. When you say you're going to do something, you will do it and at the time you promised. It's a pride thing.

How do their airlines handle weather delays or mechanical breakdowns? Serious question....I have never traveled to Japan.

It’s the same (or at least was) in Germany. Say what you want about Hitler, but he got those trains running right.
