The grievous error, as translated by Sora News, happened when a 12-car train left Notogawa Station for Nishi-Akashi Station at 7:11:35 a.m. as opposed to 7:12 a.m. as scheduled.。

The mishap occurred when the train's conductor misunderstood the departure time and sent out a signal for the train to leave the station. However, there were several people waiting to board left behind, and one person reported the incident to JR West. 。
"The great inconvenience we placed upon our customers was truly inexcusable," according to the press release. "We will be thoroughly evaluating our conduct and striving to keep such an incident from occurring again."。

A similar incident occurred last year, when Tsukuba Express management issued an apology after a train between Tokyo and Tsukuba left 20 seconds earlier than scheduled.。
