From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Chūō-Sōbu Line (中央・総武緩行線, Chūō Sōbu Kankō-sen?) is part of the East Japan Railway Company (JR East) network in Tokyo and Chiba Prefecture, Japan. It runs on the right-of-way of the Chūō Main Line and Sōbu Main Line, providing short-haul commuter service between Mitaka Station in the cities of Mitaka and Musashino and Chiba Station in Chiba.
Kankō, or "slow run", distinguishes the local trains on the Chūō-Sōbu line from the rapid service trains running on the Chūō Main Line between Mitaka and Ochanomizu, and on the Sōbu Main Line between Kinshicho and Chiba.
Women-only cars, designed to prevent chikan, will be introduced on this line during morning rush hours starting on November 20, 2006.
