Proceeding clockwise around Tokyo, we come to the second: Tokyu Their striking trains are some of the busiest in suburban Tokyo!pic.twitter.com/HH9Qszxgt0
As we continue north and west, we come to my beloved Odakyu! As I've said before, their Romance Car is the finest train in the worldpic.twitter.com/tdAs0zauLA
Next: Keio Their stylish pink trains serve the heart of Tokyo's western suburbs!pic.twitter.com/YU8fBUaVXl
Continue north and you will enter Seibu's territory! Their cheery yellow trains run as far as Kawagoe and the resorts at Chichibupic.twitter.com/1uwRDlQlp1
Next: Tobu Dominating Tokyo's northern suburbs, their trains run all the way to Nikko & Kinugawa! Tobu also owns the Tokyo Skytree complexpic.twitter.com/DDOysJUAbp
Further south and east, you'll find Keisei! This railway offers the fastest service from Tokyo to Narita Airport on its Skyliner express!pic.twitter.com/g7AgLFfV3O
Two smaller Tokyo-area companies...Shin-Keisei and Sotetsu! The former interoperates with Keisei, idk why they're distinct companies...pic.twitter.com/XN7zCuXzNN
Looks complicated, maybe a postwar defensive move? Keisei owns big chunk of Shin, but reverse not true. Shin founded in Oct. 1946
interesting...I was aware Keisei was very involved in Shin-Keisei, just unsure why they don't make it more official
& the capitalizations are curious: Shin = 36.8 oku-en, Kei = 59.3 oku-en. Yet Keisei looks bigger than twice size. Definitely a story there.
