Tokyo To Kotsu Kyoku 10-300 Kei Kyuko Toei Shinjuku Sen&Keio Sen Sagamihara Sen Motoyawata-

[Machine Translation] Rare express trains run through the subway line, taking you from the heart of the city to the verdant Tama Hills. The Toei Shinjuku Line is one of the few subways in Japan that operates an express train. The Toei Shinjuku Line connects Motoyawata in Chiba Prefecture to Shinjuku, running east to west through central Tokyo, and from there it provides direct service to the Keio Line. The Keio Sagamihara Line opened in 1990 as an access line to Tama New Town. The line is characterized by its straight, well-defined alignment, with no level crossings, as is typical of recent lines. In this film, we board a 10-300 6th class express train from Motoyawata to Hashimoto in Kanagawa Prefecture. 6th class cars are the latest lot at present, and are designed to improve service by brushing up existing cars and incorporating the concept of universal design. Departing from Motoyawata, the only Toei Subway station located in Chiba Prefecture, the train speeds up and passes through stations at a brisk pace. The passing line at Mizue and the overtaking of the station trains at Oshima provide scenes typical of express operation. From Shinjuku, the train transfers to the Keio Line, and after exiting the ground at Sasazuka, it runs alongside the section where the elevated line is under construction. The train ahead of the train sometimes appears and disappears, which reminds us of the hard work that went into setting up and operating the timetable. From Chofu, the train changes course to the Sagamihara Line and speeds up with the roar of its motors. The train runs through developed new towns and the foothills of the Tama Hills, where greenery still remains, and the train's windows that show the gentle curves and sharp ups and downs at high speeds keep the viewer entertained. The train arrives at Hashimoto, the terminus of the Linear Central Shinkansen, where construction is in full swing. The dynamic scenery, rich in change and character, can be enjoyed along the entire line. The special video features include an introduction of the 6th 10-300 type train.
