A close friend recently visited Tokyo and told me that it was very difficult to find useful information in those screens due to the sheer amount of ads being shown in them at all times, which kind of adds to what RM said in the video. According to my friend, with ads running nonstop and most of the information being in Japanese, he could only obtain actual information in English for a few seconds per minute :D On a side note, I live in Barcelona and the latest metro trains have similar info screens above the doors; I noticed that half of them show ads (plus a little space reserved for next stop info) and the other half display exclusively schematic line/station/transfer information. I find it well balanced like this

One of the reasons why the Yamanote line did not "destroy any neighborhoods" is that the original intent of the west side route was literally to bypass the busy Tokyo city centre and the Tokaido line in general, by constructing a second freight rail in the then rural Ikebukuro/Shinjuku/Shibuya area. The idea of a loop really came as a second thought. The completion of the line connecting Tokyo and Ueno came relatively late in 1925, some 40 years after the West route's construction as it passes through the denser Ginza district.

The funny thing is that many of the stations aren't even in their namesake wards, e.g. Shinagawa station is in Minato, Meguro is in Shinagawa, Shinjuku is in Shibuya, and so on. Over time though, the stations have come to define the areas they are in.

Lived in Tokyo doing a co-op work program while on university exchange in 2000 and the Yamanote-sen was such a contrast with the experience of riding the Yonge-Spadina or Bloor Lines of Toronto, where I grew up. It was like slow version teleportation - I had no sense of the city in between stations, and each station ecosystem was a world unto itself. Shibuya or Harajuku for a fun weekend, Tokyo station was a portal to the rest of Japan, Shinjuku for meet up with friends, Ueno for a wind down. Akihabara was home, outside the crazy Electric Town, it was a cute small town neighborhood where old ladies who swept the street daily, would give me soup because they heard I was sick and were concerned they hadn’t seen me walking to work for a few days and knew I was in town alone.

@RMTransit, as a once daily rider of the Yamanote, remember how it got there in the first place; it was opened in sections as a wye, only getting its loop closed years after the first part opened. Also the reason why most of the areas on the western part of the loop exist is because of the rail line itself- there were no Shibuya, Shinjuku or Ikebukuro areas before the forerunner to the Yamanote was built. In fact the Yamanote line owes its existence to the Yebisu Beer Company as they co-financed a rail connection between their new brewery southeast of Shibuya Temple and the dock lands near to Shinagawa and Osaki. This is the southern leg of the Yamanote.

Yes. I would agree. Was a regular user of this line when I first visited Tokyo in 1975. What amazed me (for someone used only to UK's BR network) at that time is how the units accelerated (low gearing perhaps) and how they would only brake upon entering the station platform. Service frequency incredible. A train every few mins for most of the day.

Although it will be twice longer (75km) and be linking major business, shopping & leisure districts and transit hubs outside the core of the city instead of inside, it will also have all but 2 of its stations that will be interchange ones to a form of rail transit (connections with metro, tram, RER, Transilien suburban rail and TGV). The only 2 stations without rail connection I mentioned will still offer bus interchange. It's planned to become the absolute shortcut for suburbs to suburbs journeys and the workhorse of the network.

Keiyo line is great! In JR East's infinite wisdom, the Tokyo terminal platform was built over 15 minutes away by foot from any other platform, giving Keiyo commuters healthier lifestyles by forcing them to walk a lot. It promotes remote work and safety by being very susceptible to service suspension in high wind, precisely because it's on elevated tracks next to the sea. And finally, it has given the Japanese a taste of the English word "enshittification" by unilaterally discontinuing commuter express service in 2024, leaving people who bought condos in the distant suburbs high and dry. Sarcasm aside, yes, the view is stunning, and it also gets you to Tokyo Disneyland--which is actually in Chiba and not Tokyo.

As someone from Chicago who used to travel to Tokyo at least once a year, I've always loved riding the Yamanote Line. That statement about how it connects tourists to major destinations within Tokyo was spot on. I've taken that line to Akihabara, Shinjuku, Harajuku, and Shibuya and then take to Shimbashi to transfer on to the Yurikamome people mover back to my hotel. The JR Yamanote line showed me a better transit system from a privatized entity that the CTA back home can't be. There were reliable and consistent scheduled departure times, very convenient connections to other rail lines (especially ones ran from other operators other than JR East), impressive stations that look like shopping malls, clean trains, as well as reasonable fares where it's not a flat fare but your fare is calculated by how far you travel. That, the ads, the leasing of retail space, as well as leasing properties outside certain stations is how the operator, JR East, is able to stay profitable while providing an exceptional public service at affordable prices .

I’m fully aware that I’m being super pedantic, but Yamanote line trains were already blasting into the platforms at around 70 ish kph before the installation of platform doors. The limitation wasn’t safety, but the difficulty of manually stopping the train at the designated point as quickly as possible, without resorting to the emergency brakes. Platform doors require higher precision when braking, so TASC (Train Automatic Stop-position Controller) was installed to partially automate the braking process. If approach speeds are faster now, it’s probably because of TASC, rather than the added safety provided by the doors themselves.

I've often seen Yamanote Line ridership cited as 3-4 million average weekday boardings, or about five Washington Metros (before COVID). When I was in Japan in 2009 I rode an entire hour loop around the Yamanote Line at the height of the AM peak. My railcar had a peak load of approximately 300 passengers crammed cheek to jowl, and watching the riders ebb and flow on and off at each station, it appeared that about 900-1,000 people used the railcar I was on at some point or another during the loop. Multiply that by 11 cars on the train and you're talking a peak load of 3,000 passengers and a total of 10,000 passengers touching this train on my hour's loop...one of the 48 trains (24 in each direction) that hour. Very impressive stuff. Kids in Japan are also taught a children's song to memorize the stops on the Yamanote Line which has aired on national TV childrens' shows. Because elementary school kids in Japan ride the trains around Tokyo by themselves...and one-third of the country lives in the Greater Tokyo Metro area.

Well when I did the math, the JR Pass cost more than the trips I was going to take, by a substantial amount.

Great video. What makes the Yamanote even more useful is that it’s often the quickest way to travel along the line. It’s often as fast, if not faster, as taking a taxi or driving. The frequency is good and the average speed is also higher than many other urban railways. Another thing I like about the Japanese railway system is that they renew stations and add platform doors without interrupting the service. They even didn’t close Harajuku Station for a day. Another example, Tokyu switched from overground to underground overnight (there’s a KZbin video about it). You can always rely on the services because they’re so reliable. The Yamanote line became so popular and it was overcrowded, so JR added the new express Ueno Tokyo line and Tokyo Metro constructed the Fukutoshin line. The Yamanote line has exited and played an important role for such a long time, so the stations attracted even more destinations and redevelopments. It’s how big cities should be built.

@@trainsandmore2319 Timed overtaking - this is especially prevalent in private railways where station distances are shorter and there are more types of express services. To achieve this, there are certain stations are intentionally built with overtaking facilities and you find that the schedules are designed in such a way that overtaking almost always happens at these stations. In the bigger overtaking stations, you can often do a cross-platform transfer from slower to faster services and vice versa so no matter where you start from you can get to any station as efficiently as possible. This might be a good topic to cover in a separate video on it's own.

Was just in Japan recently, they're really on another level there. My favourite thing about the Yamanote Line is the wayfinding on the trains themselves. As the train pulls into the station, the digital screen above the door will tell you which car you're on, where the various platform exits are in relation to you, and which part of the station those platform exits take you. Super useful especially at the busier stations. Some platforms have exits have stairs going up and down, it's very easy to accidentally go the wrong way. Google Maps has a new feature where it will tell you which car to get on for most optimal transfers.

The black yamanote train is a really cool collaboration. I was lucky to ride it a few times so far. It's a Collab between Netflix and the yamanote line. Each car is outfitted with art from different Netflix series. It's quite a cool way to do advertising, though it also commemorated 150 years of rail service in Japan. The black color is reminiscent of No. 1 Awesome video! I love learning new things about my favorite trains.

@@RMTransit Very true. And as you have mentioned in past videos, the monitors above the doors in each car are very useful for wayfinding information when you get off at a particular station. (Wayfinding trumps advertising. What a concept!) I suppose it is inevitable that heavily used and convenient lines like the Yamanote will be crowded at many points in the day. My only wish is that Tokyo and other cities in Japan would create decent cycling infrastructure so that people on shorter trips could ride their bikes instead and free up space on the train for passengers on longer journeys. The trains in Tokyo are great, but they should not be the only option IMHO. Anyhow, enjoying the videos! Hope you can make it over to Japan for some on-the-scene videos at some point.

The Yamanote line suspended operation in one direction between Jan. 7~8th (Weekend), for a construction project. This was the national headlines, even a week in advance. Despite extensive notices as posters and announcement in JR stations and adjacent railways, weeks in advance, (and many diverting or cancelling trips) it still caused overcrowding in paralleling lines (eg. Saiko line). It just shows the sheer number of people that uses the line daily, and its significance.

Many Stadtbahn systems feature street running, separated alignments, underground and elevated sections, and sometimes even running on mainline rail - and sometimes most of those in one singular line!

One important fact that many of those commenting on Tokyo's train system is that except for the Tokyo Metro the rail service in Tokyo is privately owned, as is the fact across Japan. Another fact relating to how important rail transit is in Tokyo is that it the commuting costs of Tokyo workers is usually covered by their employers. It is a sign of how important they think the rails are in handling Tokyo's transportation needs.

The reason most other train lines connect to Yamanote line is because the Japanese government banned train lines other than subways to enter inside of Yamanote line so other train lines had to connect and terminate at Yamanote line, making Yamanote line a very important line to get around Tokyo, and make Yamanote line's stations hub stations. The only exception is the Chuo line which was built before the Yamanote loop line was completed in 1925. Also, Yamanote line was originally made as a freight line to connect Touhoku main line and Toukaido main line because back then Shinbashi and Ueno was not connected by rail on the eastern side.

It's a shame there aren't passenger numbers available, as the numbers would be good to see. It is amazing how many people get off and on Yamanote Line trains at almost every station during peak hours. You get at least 1/4 of a fully loaded 11-car 4-door train get off and the same amount of new passengers then board, due to the line connecting to almost every major rail terminal and commercial centre in Tokyo. The narrow platforms you mention are the factor limiting train throughput - hundreds of people alight onto a platform that is already full of people waiting to board. When the new passengers board and the train departs the next train pulls in and repeats the same procedure about every 3 minutes.

The majority of the passengers coming from a correspondence, one cannot count them. The JR has surely only the incoming ones in station (it is already very important). It's the same problem with lines with many connecting stations. The Parisian equivalent being the RER A with 1.2 million passengers/day and the RER B which has just passed the million. But it is estimated that with transits via only correspondences we can add 20 to 25% more passengers.
