Yokohama Transit-> City Subway
Blue Line

Yokohama

The Blue is really 2 subway lines on paper, Lines 1 and 3. They come together at Kannai station. However all trains through-route, so to the public, it is one line. This it Yokohama's first subway line opening in 1972. The line uses 3rd rail and is standard gauge, which is unusual for compared to most newer Japan subways.
