The Yokohama New Transit Seaside Line is a people mover in Yokohama’s Kanazawa Ward. It differs from traditional railways in a couple ways. It doesn’t run on rails, it runs on a guideway with rubber tires. Also, it has no driver. It’s completely automated.
Yesterday, we went to Costco, which is near Namiki-chuo Station. I took this picture on the platform, which is completely enclosed.
It’s mid-afternoon, so no big crowds yet.

The Yokohama Seaside Line isn’t a traditional train. It runs on rubber tires on a guideway, and it’s fully automated. There is no driver. It runs between Shin-Sugita Station and Kanazawa-Hakkei Station. This picture is taken under the line. The entire line is elevated. Also, a little news. Today, this blog reached 50,000 views! Thank you very much! And now the picture.
