Thank you for playing JR East Train Simulator.
Thank you for your patience. The Keihin-Tohoku Line," which was well received in the Early Access version, is now back in the basic pack with an extended section!
About the Route
The Keihin-Tohoku Line and Negishi Line are major lines in the Tokyo metropolitan area connecting Omiya Station in Saitama Prefecture and Ofuna Station in Kanagawa Prefecture.
The safety system are implemented with D-ATC (Digital ATC), which allows passengers to grasp the allowable speed with a speedometer at hand.
Between Tabata and Tamachi Stations, the line runs parallel to the Yamanote Line, and the Keihin Tohoku Line operates as a rapid train in this section during the daytime.
(*This video was recorded before the opening of Takanawa Gateway Station.)
*The voice "The stop pattern is for each station" is followed by "The stop pattern is for rapid trains", but this is due to the specification when operating the driver's cab selection switch and reproduces the actual environment.
