About the Route
Seibu Ikebukuro Line is a major route operated by SEIBU RAILWAY, connecting Ikebukuro Station in Toshima Ward, Tokyo, to Agano Station in Hannō City, Saitama Prefecture, over a distance of 57.8 km.
The scenery along the line shifts from urban areas to the suburbs and then to mountainous regions. While serving as a vital route for commuters and students, it also handles tourism and leisure travel. Some sections are elevated and feature four tracks, enabling smooth intercity transportation. Furthermore, west of Tokorozawa, lush green scenery unfolds, dotted with numerous leisure spots.
Via Nerima Station, the line operates through-service with Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line and Yurakuchō Lines, Tokyu Tōyoko Line, and Minatomirai Line, allowing direct access to Shibuya and Yokohama without transfers. The limited express “Laview” and the reserved-seat “S-TRAIN” also operate, providing a comfortable means of transportation for both commuting and sightseeing.
The line features a diverse timetable and a wide variety of train types, including express and commuter services. Another attraction is the opportunity to see a wide variety of rolling stock thanks to the through-service operations.
With its diverse appeal connecting the city center and the suburbs, nature and the city, and daily life and tourism,Seibu Ikebukuro Line supports the lives of many people while also serving as a gateway to discovering the charms of the area along its route.
