Tokyo's rail network is, by almost any measure, the most complex urban transit system ever constructed.

This book is your guide to that network, or at least to the lines within it that are most essential, most historically significant, and most rewarding for the visitor to Tokyo. We will travel the great loop of the Yamanote Line, the east-west artery of the Chuo Line, the ancient corridors of the Ginza and Marunouchi subways, the deep tunnels of the Oedo Line, the suburban romance of the Tokyu Toyoko Line, and the quietly fascinating Seibu Shinjuku Line, which carries millions of commuters each year through some of the city's most under-appreciated neighbourhoods.

In this book you will find

  • Train line station maps
  • Tips for riding the train in Tokyo
  • Information about the surrounding areas of some of Tokyo's most interesting stations
  • The history of trains in Japan and Tokyo's most important lines
If you are planning a trip to Tokyo, the you most certainly will be using the public transportation network...
