The abbreviation ''Odakyu'' was made popular by the title song of the 1929 movie '' Tōkyō k ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Railway Lines Opened In 1925
Rail transport (also known as train transport) is a means of transport that transfers passengers and goods on wheeled vehicles running on rails, which are incorporated in tracks. In contrast to road transport, where the vehicles run on a prepared flat surface, rail vehicles (rolling stock) are directionally guided by the tracks on which they run. Tracks usually consist of steel rails, installed on sleepers (ties) set in ballast, on which the rolling stock, usually fitted with metal wheels, moves. Other variations are also possible, such as "slab track", in which the rails are fastened to a concrete foundation resting on a prepared subsurface. Rolling stock in a rail transport system generally encounters lower frictional resistance than rubber-tyred road vehicles, so passenger and freight cars (carriages and wagons) can be coupled into longer trains. The operation is carried out by a railway company, providing transport between train stations or freight customer facilit ...

List Of Railway Lines In Japan
List of railway lines in Japan lists existing railway lines in Japan alphabetically. The vast majority of Japanese railways are classified under two Japanese laws, one for and another for . The difference between the two is a legal, and not always substantial, one. Some regional rails are classified as ''kidō'', while some light rails are actually ''tetsudō''. There are also other railways not legally classified as either ''tetsudō'' or ''kidō'', such as airport people movers, ''slope cars'' (automated small rack monorails), or amusement park rides. Those lines are not listed here. According to the laws, ''tetsudō/kidō'' include conventional railways (over ground or underground, including subways), as well as maglev trains, monorails, ''new transit systems'' (a blanket term roughly equivalent to people mover or automated guideway transit in other countries), '' skyrails'' (automated small cable monorails), trams, trolleybuses, guideway buses, funiculars (called "cable c ...

IC Card
A smart card, chip card, or integrated circuit card (ICC or IC card) is a physical electronic authentication device, used to control access to a resource. It is typically a plastic credit card-sized card with an embedded integrated circuit (IC) chip. Many smart cards include a pattern of metal contacts to electrically connect to the internal chip. Others are contactless, and some are both. Smart cards can provide personal identification, authentication, data storage, and application processing. Applications include identification, financial, mobile phones (SIM), public transit, computer security, schools, and healthcare. Smart cards may provide strong security authentication for single sign-on (SSO) within organizations. Numerous nations have deployed smart cards throughout their populations. The universal integrated circuit card, or SIM card, is also a type of smart card. , 10.5billion smart card IC chips are manufactured annually, including 5.44billion SIM card IC chips. Hist ...

PASMO
is a rechargeable contactless smart card electronic money system. It is primarily used for public transport in Tokyo, Japan, where it was introduced on 18 March 2007. Pasmo can also be used as a payment card for vending machines and stores. Pasmo is a development of the Passnet system used by many non- JR railway lines in the Greater Tokyo Area. The system offers interoperability with the JR East Suica system, as well as integrating private bus companies into the former Passnet network. The technology is based on an RFID technology developed by Sony known as FeliCa. As of April 2009, there are over 11 million cards in circulation. Companies and organizations accepting Pasmo Railways Most railway operators introduced the system simultaneously when Pasmo started. * Chiba Urban Monorail (from 14 March 2009) *Enoshima Electric Railway (Enoden) *Hakone Tozan Railway * Hokuso Railway *Izu Hakone Railway ( Daiyuzan Line only) *Keikyu *Keio Corporation *Keisei Electric Railwa ...

Suica
is a prepaid rechargeable contactless smart card, electronic money used as a fare card on train lines in Japan, launched on November 18, 2001. The card can be used interchangeably with JR West's ICOCA in the Kansai region and San'yō region in Okayama, Hiroshima, and Yamaguchi prefectures, and also with JR Central's TOICA, JR Kyushu's SUGOCA, Nishitetsu's Nimoca, and Fukuoka City Subway's Hayakaken area in Fukuoka City and its suburb areas. The card is also increasingly being accepted as a form of electronic money for purchases at stores and kiosks, especially within train stations. As of 2018, JR East reports 69.4 million Suica UID's have been issued, usable at 476,300 point of sale locations, with 6.6 million daily transactions. Since Suica is completely interchangeable with Pasmo (see ''Interoperation'' for the complete listing of companies and lines that accept Suica) in the greater Tokyo area, it is supported on virtually any train, tramway, and bus system (excluding v ...

Midorichō Station
is a passenger railway station located in the city of Odawara, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, operated by the Izuhakone Railway. Lines Midorichō Station is served by the Daiyūzan Line, and is located 0.4 kilometers from the line's terminus at Odawara Station. Station layout The station consists of a single side platform with a small rain shelter built on the platform. The station has no station building and is unmanned. Adjacent stations History Midorichō Station was opened on June 14, 1935, when the Izuhakone Railway's Daiyūzan Line was extended from Sagami-Hirokoji to Shin-Odawara. Both of the adjacent stations went out of operation two days later; the line was then extended to Odawara Station. Passenger statistics In fiscal 2019, the station was used by an average of 228 passengers daily (boarding passengers only).

Electric Multiple Unit
An electric multiple unit or EMU is a multiple-unit train consisting of self-propelled carriages using electricity as the motive power. An EMU requires no separate locomotive, as electric traction motors are incorporated within one or a number of the carriages. An EMU is usually formed of two or more semi-permanently coupled carriages, but electrically powered single-unit railcars are also generally classed as EMUs. The great majority of EMUs are passenger trains, but versions also exist for carrying mail. EMUs are popular on commuter and suburban rail networks around the world due to their fast acceleration and pollution-free operation. Being quieter than diesel multiple units (DMUs) and locomotive-hauled trains, EMUs can operate later at night and more frequently without disturbing nearby residents. In addition, tunnel design for EMU trains is simpler as no provision is needed for exhausting fumes, although retrofitting existing limited-clearance tunnels to accommodate the ...
