As of 2024, there are a total of 46 subway lines in Japan. This time, we will be looking at the Kobe Municipal Subway Kaigan Line (Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture), which is the most unprofitable line among them. It connects Sannomiya-Hanadokeimae to Shin-Nagata, a 7.9 km journey in about 14 to 15 minutes, and as the line name "Kaigan Line" suggests, it runs along the sea side. However, compared to the Seishin-Yamate Line, which is also part of the Kobe Municipal Subway, the Kaigan Line has an overwhelmingly weak presence, and is not well known in the first place. Naturally, it is far behind in terms of the number of users. So, this time, we will provide an overview of the Kobe Municipal Subway Kaigan Line's line and usage status, and then look into the current situation of its huge deficit and the reasons for it! ◆Video Contents◆ 00:00 Prologue 01:29 Overview of the Kobe Municipal Subway Kaigan Line 03:38 I actually took the ride! ① Before boarding 05:33 I actually took the ride! ② Sannomiya-Hanadokeimae Station to Kyukyoryuchi-Daimarumae Station 06:19 I actually took the ride! ③ Old Settlement, Daimarumae Station 07:51 I actually rode it! ④ Old Settlement, Daimarumae Station → Harborland Station 08:16 I actually rode it! ⑤ Harborland Station 09:27 I actually rode it! ⑥ Harborland Station → Wadamisaki Station 10:00 I actually rode it! ⑦ Wadamisaki Station 11:46 I actually rode it! ⑧ Wadamisaki Station → Shin-Nagata Station 12:32 I actually rode it! ⑨ Shin-Nagata Station 13:46 Current state of huge deficit 16:24 Reason for huge deficit and future measures? ① Low demand for the route 18:23 Reason for huge deficit and future measures? ② Decline of Kobe City 19:41 Ending ◆ Correction ◆ ① 06:59 The reading of "Daimaru Kobe Store" is not "Daimaru Kobe Ten", but the correct reading is "Daimaru Kobe Mise". ◆About the nickname "Hitachi no Tetsuto"◆ It comes from the well-known "Inaba no Shirousagi".
