Notes
Welcome to Tōkyō! And the region around it as well. This area is full of many train lines, which is expected of an area with so much movement during the entire day. The game actually puts two separate lines here, Yamanote Line and Keihin-Tōhoku Line, both operated by JR East. While they are close enough to the point where many stations are served by both lines, there's still quite a few differences between both.
The Yamanote Line is a circular train line, which has trains going both clockwise and counterclockwise, all of them are local and stop by all stations. It doesn't actually make a perfect circle, though, it's more of an upside-down egg. In this game you only end up seeing a small portion of it. It has probably one of the most recognizable trains, the 205 series, which have sadly already been replaced by newer trains.
The Keihin-Tōhoku Line is a normal train line that passes by some of the stations on the eastern side of the Yamanote Line. While most trains are local, some trains during certain hours become rapid trains, skipping a few stations where it runs parallel to the Yamanote Line and only stopping on the more movement-heavy ones. Again, not all of this line's stations appear in the game.
