request for feedback on a piece of translation I did today

Hi folks,

 

I did a bit of translation for fun a while ago. The Chinese is rather challenging, and vague when it finishes. Given this and the fact that I am not a native speaker, the translation may be substandard. I would appreciate it if anyone could give me some feedback, and if possible, point out the mistakes I made in the translation. Thanks. 

 

参考日本新干线优质代表公司JR东海,核心路产是东海道新干线,营运里程约553公里,连接东京-京都-新大阪区位优势显著,与京沪路线能够形成对照,东海道新干线占日本高铁里程20%左右,我们预计2019年东海道旅客周转量占比新干线的65%左右,1997JR东海上市之初客运量高增时期PEprice-to-earnings ratio30倍。
A similar case is JR East, one of the best performing operators of the Shinkansen. The companys core asset, the Tokaido Shinkansen, which connects Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka over its 553-kilometre line, enjoys great geographic advantages, reflecting a status similar to that of Chinas Beijing-Shanghai railway route. This eastern line represents approximately 20% of Japans total railway length. We estimate that its passenger volume was about 65% of that of the whole Shinkansen network in 2019, and its P/E ratio near 31 times its original during the peak season in 1997, the year the company went public.

 

PS: I am particularly concerned whether there are grammatical or collocation mistakes in the parts in bold.
