Yurikamome Odaiba – Tokyo JAPAN

New Transit Yurikamome (新交通ゆりかもめ, Shinkōtsū Yurikamome), is an automated guideway transit service operated by Yurikamome, Inc., connecting Shimbashi to Toyosu, via the artificial island of Odaiba in Tokyo, Japan, a market in which it competes with the Rinkai Line.
The line is named after the black-headed gull (yurikamome in Japanese), a common denizen of Tokyo Bay and the official metropolitan bird.
The Yurikamome is Tokyo’s first fully automated transit system, controlled entirely by computers with no drivers on board. However, the line is not the first in Japan, as Kobe’s Port Liner opened in 1981, 14 years before the Yurikamome.
The Yurikamome is sometimes mistakenly called a monorail, but the trains run with rubber-tired wheels on elevated concrete track guided by the side walls.

Miss you Tokyo 😍
外国語が聞こえる。これは人気スポットでしょうね。 豊洲から路線延長してぐるっと回って新橋に帰ってきたら凄いことですね。
