A railway view point that can be enjoyed for 0 yen! Ryukan Sakura Bridge

Hello, this is the new correspondent "Take-chan".

Well, it's a problem. How many JR stations are there in Chuo-ku?

There are three answers.

"Shin Nihonbashi" and "Bakurocho" on the Sobu Line Rapid Service, and "Hatchobori" on the Keiyo Line.

Then one more question. Is the only JR line running in Chuo-ku only the Sobu Line Rapid and Keiyo Line?

The answer is "No."

The Shinkansen (Hokkaido, Tohoku, Joetsu, Hokuriku, Akita, Yamagata), Ueno Tokyo Line, Keihin Tohoku Line, Yamanote Line, Chuo Line run in Chuo-ku. I am. The only small section between Tokyo Station and Kanda Station is Chuo-ku.

This time, we will introduce "Ryukan Sakura Bridge", which was built right next to the JR Line, with the gaze of "Take-chan", who loves railway.

 

Debuted in 2018! But isn't it well known?

"Ryukan Sakura Bridge" was built in the spring of 2018 as a bridge that directly connects Nihonbashi Honishi-cho and Otemachi. It can be said that the feature is "barrier-free pedestrian-only bridge" and "trains pass next to the bridge constantly".

As you can see, a stylish elevator is installed on the bridge, and wheelchairs and crutches can be used with confidence.

Because it was a weekday during GW, there were few traffic even during the daytime! I have to do my best to promote this as a correspondent.

The trains that appear one after another.

As you stand on the bridge, various trains run through the next track.

On the bridge is the Metropolitan Expressway, which opened in 1964, and under the bridge is the Nihonbashi River, which continues from Edo. "Ryukan Sakura Bridge", where the days of Tokyo intersect, is designed to be directly connected to the 2nd floor of Otemachi Place, so you can see the tracks from the same perspective!

It can be said that it is an irresistible space for railway enthusiasts such as Take-chan, who like railways.

The next railway bridge also has a good taste.

※Manseibashi Station was the first train station on the Chuo Main Line in 1912 (Meiji 45). It is now transformed into "Machie Cute Kanda Manseibashi".
