Japanese Transit
Nagoya

Nagoya

Nagoya is Japan's 3rd city with the 3rd largest subway system. It is an easy system to use, that is constantly growing. Commuter trains as well as interurbans are very busy in this area. I also have Nagoya Farecards images in my farecards section

This is the Sakura-Dori Line at Nagoya station. It is the newest subway line. It utilizes overhead for current collection. This line seems to have been built to provide relief to the Higashiyama Line (9/98)	Same train is seen speeding away from Nagoya Eki. (9/98)
This train is on the Higashiyama Line, probably Nagoya's busiest Line. It utilizes 3rd Rail current collection. Older equipment from this line has been sold to Buenos Aires to operate there. This train is leaving Kamejima Station. (9/98)	This is the Meijo Line at Nagaya-ko (Nagoya Port) terminal. It is one of two Nagoya subway lines that utilized 3rd rail for current collection. The Meijo Line is the North South Line for Nagoya.(9/98)
