- Cab view of JR East Chuo Line. From Nakano Station to Takao Station. This video is approximately 39 minutes long, so please watch it in sections.
The train I took was from Tachikawa Station and connected to the Ome Line, which branches off from Tachikawa Station, so I changed trains at Tachikawa Station.
The 22km track from Nakano Station to Tachikawa Station is laid in a straight line, which is unusual for Japanese railways. At the time when this railway was being built, there was a movement against the construction of the railway by residents living along the line, and the engineer, who was having trouble making adjustments, got frustrated and threw a ruler on the map to determine the location of the railway.
This story is apparently made up, but the railroad tracks run in a straight line between Nakano Station and Tachikawa Station, so much so that the legend remains.
At the 12 minute mark in the video, a double-decker train is connected to a passing train. This is a double-decker green car (1st class) scheduled to begin operation in 2024, and trial runs are currently underway (February 2024).
For commuter trains that depart from Tokyo Station, Takao Station is the western terminal. To the west from Takao Station, medium-distance trains depart from Takao Station or Tachikawa Station.

JR東日本中央線の前面展望中野駅→高尾駅です。全編で39分の長さがありますので、途中で区切りながらご覧下さい。12分過ぎにすれ違う列車にダブルデッカーが連結されていますが、2024年に運転が開始される予定のダブルデッカーグリーン車を連結した試運転列車です。
Enjoyed the train ride on this long line. I also enjoyed seeing some snow on the ground in various locations. Thank you for an excellent video.
Thank you for your comment. The Chuo Line enters the mountains beyond Takao Station, the last stop for this trip. Although it is not a deep mountainous region like the mountain railways of Switzerland or the rocky areas of the United States, the atmosphere is different from the area between Tokyo Station and Takao Station where there are rows of houses. I hope to be able to introduce it someday.
Many thanks from Sydney. 🏳🌈
With my pleasure.
Kereta-kereta yang sangat bagus & sistem perkeretaapian yang sangat keren
Perkeretaapian Jepang bangga dengan pengoperasiannya yang sistematis. Namun, banyak orang mengatakan bahwa kondisi perkeretaapian saat ini lebih buruk dibandingkan masa lalu. Terima kasih atas komentar Anda.
立川で乗り換えたんですね😊
👍👏😊 Brasil 🇧🇷

Greatly enjoyed the video. Also enjoyed the contrasting architecture seen in some locations along the way, from modern to older to some that, if we hadn't passed so quickly, looked to be traditional. I find that kind of thing fascinating. I do have a question for you. I noticed, at various locations, what I would call "position" signals. A row of 3 white lights where the 2 outer lights change position around the center one, to indicate proceed, approach and stop. Is that what they are, or do they serve some other purpose? My curiosity stems from guite a few eastern US railroads, years ago, using that type of signal, system wide? Again, I really enjoy your videos. 😂😂😂

Are you talking about a traffic light that lights up these three types of lights?
These are traffic lights called "Repeating signals."
The traffic light in front of this traffic light is built in a place that is difficult to see and relays the signal shown now. If the lamps are lined up vertically, you can advance. If it's diagonal, it means caution, and if it's horizontal, it means stop.
This signal is only a supplement to the regular signal, and even if a train passes through this signal, it will not affect the instructions given by the signal ahead. This is just an auxiliary signal.
@@14ikesan12- Thanks for the explanation. I dated myself asking that question since 99% of these were replaced years ago. They were all over the place when I was a kid in the 40s. 😮
Small correction to your description: there are some Commuter Rapid and even a few regular trains departing from Tokyo that go as far as Ōtsuki.
That's right. Thank you for your comment. There is also a train that connects to the Fujikyuko line from Otsuki Station and runs to Kawaguchiko Station. This is, of course, a sightseeing train, not a commuter train, but the cars used are class E233s, the same as those operated as rapid trains between Tokyo Station and Takao Station. The trains bound for Otsuki Station and Kawaguchiko Station run infrequently, but they have been in service for a long time, so there must be a certain number of users.
Also, if you notice anything, please feel free to point it out.
12:38 I heard that there is a double-decker Greensha train running on the Chuo Line, but from the video, it seems to be real! Is it running on 12 cars? Since when has it been running?
It is test run.
乗ってい電車は青梅行き、なのにタイトルは「中野→高尾」？
当初から、中野～高尾間を収録する予定でした。ただ、やって来た列車が青梅特快でしたから、こちらの方が通過駅が多く、個人的には快適でしたので、立川で乗り換えることにしました。
