A Correct answer
Explanation

Nozomi is the fastest Shinkansen (bullet train) service on Japan's Tokaido Shinkansen line, reaching speeds up to 300 km/h. Hikari is the second-fastest service, and Kodama is the local service that stops at all stations. 'Hikari rail star' was a limited variant service but not the fastest. Nozomi means 'hope' in Japanese and offers the fastest travel between Tokyo and Osaka.
