History

edit
Den-en-toshi Line was built underneath the road where the original Tamagawa Interurban Line ran

Prewar predecessors

edit

On March 6, 1907, the Tamagawa Electric Railway(Ngọc xuyên điện khí thiết đạo,Tamagawa Denki Tetsudō,"Tamaden" )opened the first section of aninterurbanline between Shibuya and what is nowFutako-Tamagawa,using1,372 mm(4 ft 6 in) gauge.[3]The line was called the Tamagawa Line(Ngọc xuyên tuyến)and is not to be confused with today'sTokyu Tamagawa Line( đông cấp đa ma xuyên tuyến ). The branch fromSangen-Jaya Stationopened on January 18, 1925.

Tama Den-En-Toshi Plan

edit

In 1953, Tokyu Group presidentKeita Gotōunveiled a "new town"planning scheme called theSouth-Western Area Development Plan.He envisioned new railway line and freeway and large, clean houses for commuters working in Tokyo.[4]The railway line would become the Tama Den-En-Toshi Line and the expressway theTōmei Expressway.The parts of the new line completely overlaps the Tamagawa Line and the project is known as the Shin-Tamagawa Line or "New Tamagawa Line" which runs in an underground alignment under the old interurban line. The Tamagawa Line was closed in 1969 in anticipation for the opening of the Shin-Tamagawa Line, with the remaining branch line of the Tamagawa Electric Railway split off into the presentTokyu Setagaya Line.The underground Shin-Tamagawa Line opened a few years later in 1977, completely replacing the closed interurban line. Upon opening it was treated as a separate line from the Ōimachi Line connecting to said line at Futako-Tamagawa.[citation needed]

Development of the line

edit

In 2000, Tama Den-En-Toshi Line as depicted today was created by merging the Shin-Tamagawa Line and the section of the Ōimachi Line west ofFutako-Tamagawa.[citation needed]Trains through servicing into theTokyo Metro Hanzōmon Linewas extended beyondSuitengūmaeintoIsesaki LineandNikkō LineofTobu Railwayon March 19, 2003.[4]

Tokyu has expanded the line to four tracks from Futako-Tamagawa to Mizonokuchi; most trains of the Ōimachi line run through this section to Mizonokuchi, with some local trains making the intermediate stops. This service began in June 2009, postponed from fiscal 2007. Ōimachi line trains, which are 5- or 7-car sets, will then run betweenŌimachiand Mizonokuchi.[5]

Operation

edit

Nearly all trains on the Den-en-toshi Line are operated through to/from theTokyo Metro Hanzomon Lineusing Tokyu, Tokyo Metro, andTobu Railway10-car EMUs. Around half of them continue beyondOshiage,the terminus of the Hanzomon Line, to theTobu Skytree Line(Kita-Koshigaya Station,Kita-Kasukabe StationandTōbu-Dōbutsu-Kōen Station),Tobu Isesaki Line(Kuki Station), andTōbu Nikkō Line(Minami-Kurihashi Station).[6]At rush hour, an inbound train arrives as frequently as every 2 minutes 10 seconds.

Service types

edit

The following three types of service are operated on the line.[6]

Local(Các dịch đình xa,Kakueki-teisha)(L)

Through trains to Ōimachi Line

edit
