Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya.I like the illustrations. If the average of the most crowded sections of lines has become significantly less crowded over the 30 year period, I suppose that was the result of new lines being built at a faster rate than ridership increased. Here's some figures by sections, badly translated by Google. In spite of the translation, I was able (with difficulty) to identify all the places mentioned in the Tokyo area. The most crowded sections are the JR Keihin-Tohoku line from Ueno to Okachimachi (214%), the JR Chuo rapid line from Nakano to Shinjuku (211%), and the JR Sobu rapid line from Shin-Koiwa to Kinsicho (207%). I found no data for the JR Yamanote line. Curiously, nowhere on the JR Chuo local line is more than 89% crowded! |
