Posted by Wado MP73 on Fri Jul 6 19:22:50 2007, in response to Re: Tokyo (Re: Some Subways Found Packed Past Capacity), posted by David Fairthorne on Fri Jul 6 15:30:54 2007. There are extra tracks through Nakano station itself (not between stations), presumably to allow for long dwell times there on the Chuorapid line. But I don't see why they need two tracks (7 and 8) eastbound and only one (6) westbound. They do this eastbound only during morning rush because westbound does never get crowded to that point even during evening rush. When I was using that line everyday (in the reverse direction thank God), they did this eastbound only at Nakano and Shinjuku but now they also do it at Mitaka. Most lines in Japan paired by directions have fast tracks on the inside (like New York). Tobu Isezaki line is one of the few exceptions. |
