Unlike many other large metropolitan areas, Osaka and Tokyo metro lines mostly serve the cities' inner cores only. Their suburbs are served by private suburban railways and JR lines. That is why Osaka Metro and Tokyo Metro's line lengths are shorter than other metro systems.
The other reason is because most of the Japanese subway system are operated by the city or municipal themselves or these authorities got a shareholder in the operating company. So, it's quite difficult for them to operate outside of the city boundary. The Kita-Osaka Kyuko Railway was also created because of this reason.
@@kodama711 it would make logical sense for Osaka Metro to acquire the Kitakyu and Keihanna lines to be integrated into the system since they are on third rail with no grade crossings.
Fun fact: the extension of the Midosuji line out to Shin-Osaka was a result of the development of the Shinkansen (bullet train) service between Tokyo and Osaka in 1964. They couldn't run the line through the downtown area because land prices were too high so they created a new station on the outskirts of the city, similar to Yokohama and Kobe. Interestingly, the city center did not move to the bullet train stop, but stayed where it was.
They also couldn't build because of the unfavorable alignment. There were 4 proposals, Shin-Ōsaka was the most favourable one for both of our afforementioned reasons.
@@hughmungusbungusfungus4618 they couldn't demolish kilometres of buildings in the right of way to reach Ōsaka station. Then again the curve was also too large to get out of the city on the Sanyō shinkansen
@@hughmungusbungusfungus4618 well not quite, back then it was really just land acquisition and selection of the alignment. Now in Shizuoka prefecture the tunnel construction is halted under the Ōi river, due to a groundwatee eruption during construction. But the Ōi river is an important water resource for Shizuoka prefecture. JR Central and the prefecture can't settle an agreement on what to do so construction continues in the cities, but not in Shizuoka prefecture.
In past, Osaka City was refusing that private railways expand to Central Osaka. It was called the "Municipal Monroe Doctrine". Now it is withdrawn and Hanshin Namba Line(private railway) goes through from west to east.
@@jmstransit Meitetsu (a private company) intended to build Komaki Line from Inuyama City to Heian-dōri which is to become a transfer station with Nagoya Subway. All other sections were built, but Nagoya City refused to give permit for the very last section, including only 2 stations, Kami-Iida and Heian-dōri, since this section is solely in Nagoya City, and in Munroe Doctrine only the City can operate this section. So passengers from Inuyama, and also passengers from Tōkadai Line, a branch of Komaki Line, had to transfer to bus (of course operated by Nagoya City) at Kami-Iida Station to enter the city center. This caused a huge inconvenience and many residents chose to take direct buses to Nagoya city center instead of railway. Komaki Line was struggling and its branch line, Tōkadai Line, was even closed due to lack of passengers. Finally, years after Tōkadai Line's closure, Nagoya City built a subway line from Heian-dōri to Kami-Iida with through service to Inuyama to close this gap of railway, and this is still in the framework of Monroe Doctrine since the subway is operated by Nagoya City. But Tōkadai Line never reopened.
Right, the peachliner Yeah that's peak Nagoya gadgetbahn Edit: This looks to be the same reason half the stations on the Yamanote Line are in the top 50 busiest stations of the world
Yes indeed Tōkyō has Monroe Doctrine as well, but almost every station on Yamanote Line has also Metro or Subway lines towards inside of the loop, many having through services with private railways or JR towards outside of the loop. If you go radically you often don't need to transfer but just take a train with through service. It's inacceptable for one of the world's largest cities to have a train terminating on its loop line but with no mass transit to go inside :) I think the reason many stations on the Yamanote Line are in the top 50 busiest stations of the world is simply because they are huge transfer stations with so many lines, and because most of the world, excluding Japan, don't count subways or metros as normal railways, so they don't count that part of passenger numbers.
@@liyangzhang8592 Its different Tokyo had a JNR Monroe doctrIne but not for the subways. The two operators (Toei and Tokyo metro) had to compete for funds and political support so they developed extensive subway through-running in their route planning from the Asakusa line onwards. Yamanote is simply the perfect urban city centre orbital, connectIng to all the main stations and districts, seperated ROW, subway frequencies and even some radial elements Ueno-Shinagawa.
1990 (6:05) - the first conventional (iron wheel) linear metro in the country opens for operation. It's also the first outside North America. The famed underground loop line in Tokyo using said technology would open 1 year later in 1991. If you squish its name down you get a tag used in R-18 Manga (I'll let you figure it out)
私も約５年前から、同じく路線図での歴史動画（アニメーション）を作っていますが、Metro Linerさんの作品には到底かないません。素晴らしいアニメーションですね！ I have also made historical videos of the route map from about five years ago, but your productions are more fantastic than mine. It's an excellent animation.
I'm a railway geek from Osaka. Osaka Metro has recently upgraded the Chuo Line to the 400 series (nicknamed Spaceship) and renovated stations on the Midosuji Line in preparation for the Expo. However, the 20 series, 30000a series, and 400 series currently run on the Chuo Line, but the 20 series and 30000a series will disappear after the Expo, and the 400 series will become the main line.
None of them. Osaka has a monorail system with 2 lines in the northern parts of the city. But they're not officially part of the metro and thus they are not on this map. Aside from the metro, Osaka also has a lot of other metro-like train lines, such as the Osaka Loop Line, the JR San'yo line, and the private Nankai, Hankyu and Hanshin networks. This video only shows a tiny part of the many urban train lines that operate in Osaka.
I always find it interesting why their metro is grided. It seems it wasn't intended in the first place, it was just different lines ended up intersecting each other.
Holy shet, we stayed near Hanazonocho last March. No wonder the houses and infrastructure there seem pretty old.It is one of the first stations in Osaka.
Hanshin Namba line and Kintetsu Osaka/Nara line is another west-east bound line, Namba is their combined station. Private owned system and operating many trains and able to reach far more places, included Kobe, Nara and Nagoya. Hankyu should be considered as commuter's railroad, but, they're doing well, with very high frequency services, also can be transfer easily between local and express trains. And Midosuji line will extend 2 more stations toward north, end at Minoh-Kayano station.
There was an old line (in the 80s?) that peeled off from the road in Tennoji (halfway between Shin Imamiya and Tennoji stations, turning south thru what is now Sannomidori Park , down towards the midosjuji line heading south. Being a railway enthusiast, while walking west from Tennoji, i notice a strange "pathway" curving thru the houses and buildings - cant miss and old rail line ..
I like how you draw out the through services as well. It’s something iconic in Japanese railroads that can’t be missed

@@SigmaRho2922 The reason the Keihanna line exists is because Kintetsu didn't want to lose market share on its parallel Nara line

I like the thin lines for thru services. It helps differentiate where the metro service ends and becomes commuter rail.
