Um pouco artificial
"Osaka is a two-hour, bullet train ride west of Tokyo."
- this is as short as you can reasonably make it.
Note that English style is not to heavily use compound nouns, unlike German.
So, something like this would be more likely used:
"Osaka is (just) two hours west of Tokyo by bullet train."
