This video introduces the rapid trains that pass through the interchange section (Tsukuba - Moriya) of the Tsukuba Express (TX) at a maximum speed of 130 km/h, and the local rapid trains that depart and arrive. The Tsukuba Express operates at a maximum speed of 130 km/h (normally 125 - 129 km/h), and connects Akihabara Station - Tsukuba Station, 58.3 km, in as little as 45 minutes (rapid train). The entire line is automatically operated by the Automatic Train Operation (ATO). The train is operated by a single person, with a driver on board but no conductor. Many automation technologies are used, such as movable platform gates at all stations. The first half of the video shows high-speed passing trains, and the second half shows departures and arrivals. Filming was done from various angles inside the station. Train information, speedometer, and stop station information are included. Vehicles that can be confirmed: TX-2000 series, TX-3000 series (AC/DC trains) *The TX-1000 series is a DC train, so it is not introduced in this video. *The station numbering in the train information is TX, not TK. We apologize for the recent series of fatal mistakes. ????♂️
