The Psychology of Japanese Train Stations

I have never been to Japan myself but those of my friends who were all had nothing but praise for the train system.

WRT the lack of English: In most parts of of South America you won't find anyone who speaks English. Same for North Africa. One can be annoyed or just see the humourous aspects and put the car into the "car parking park" (seen in Morocco) before having a "vegetarian in bread" (seen in Berlin). ;)

A friend and I found ourselves stranded in rural Japan when the train system shut down for days due to high winds. Seems to me lots of foreigners tend to visit big cities and tourist centers only then walk away wowed, frankly the infrastructure is more heterogeneous than this set realise.
