Yes, 99% of the time trains run on time to the minute, even outside of the urban areas. Delays can occur but usually they are only a few minutes.
Absolutely, there is much more!
In fact for most local rail fans, the shinkansen is of least interest as there is so much more, from old (SL, older rolling stock) to very modern (Maglev, modern and intensive urban networks).
There is also lots of variety. As well as the shinkansen and the Yamanote Line there are extensive urban networks run by numerous companies, Steam Locomotives, trams, monorail and other “alternative systems, freight, rural lines and many interesting trains. Japan also has several big railway museums.
