- Numbers THIS high are only possible in an evironment like Tokyo's, where they represent just a small share of the total rail market
- Nonetheless, Odakyu outperforms most other private railways *even in Tokyo.* Good vacation destinations & deluxe trains boost their appeal
- Ridership is concentrated at major transfer points (Machida, Fujisawa, etc), routinely exceeding 100,000 at those stations
- More mundane stops on the line still see tens of thousands of riders a day--only a few stops see less than 10,000 daily
Maybe another time, we can look at the rest of Odakyu. But for now, we thank you for riding, and hope you'll ride #TrainTwitter again soon!
(do you have much sense of the company’s history/ longevity, & how that may have influenced its success?)
some--but not enough...I know they used to terminate at Mukogaoka Yuen, and built an amusement park there (now closed)
hmm, maybe I can rummage up some sources. I think it’ll be an interesting story
