Tobu Daishi Line
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tōbu Daishi Line (東武大師線 Tōbu Daishi-sen?) is a 1.0 km train line, owned and operated by Tōbu Railway. It runs only in Adachi, Tokyo, Japan, from Nishiarai Station to Daishimae Station.
This Line is a part of Tōbu Nishiita Line (東武西板線 Tōbu Nishiita-sen?) which became a failure by the plan. The Tōbu Nishiita line was scheduled to connect Tōbu Isesaki Line and Tōbu Tōjō Main Line for the purpose of improvement in vehicles transfer efficiency, and improvement in the convenience of residents along the line.
