【Hoikusha Color Books】553 Private Railways of Japan 11: Keio Teito This book, packed with the charm of the Keio Teito Electric Railway, which stretches from Shinjuku in western Tokyo to Tama New Town and then to Mt. Takao, is now available in a palm-sized color book. This book details the history of the Keio Line and the Inokashira Line, which have different specifications, and introduces all of the Keio vehicles, from the most advanced at the time to nostalgic classic cars. The appeal of this book lies in its capture of the era when Keio's vehicles were undergoing a major turning point. The 6000 series, with its white body and red lines, which graces the cover, had just begun to play a leading role on the Keio Line at the time, establishing a sophisticated image. In addition, detailed diagrams and formation tables of the 3000 series, which represents the Inokashira Line, and the 5000 series, the "Green Car" that was active on the express trains of the Keio Line, are included, showcasing the identity of Keio. The monochrome pages include remnants of the "Tamaminami Electric Railway" era from the late Taisho era to the early Showa era, and many images of the old-fashioned vehicles with their impressive green two-tone colors. In particular, the photos of the Inokashira Line's work vehicles, such as the Deni and Deto, and the old-fashioned vehicles running through the tranquil scenery of the time, allow you to feel the atmosphere of the Keio Line area at that time. The route map is a valuable record for understanding the entire picture of the Keio Electric Railway at the time, including the Keio New Line, which had just begun mutual direct operation with the Toei Shinjuku Line, the extension status of the Takao Line and Sagamihara Line at the time, and the Tama Zoological Park Line. The vehicle equipment specifications table at the end of the book, including the main motor, bogie, and control device, is an invaluable resource for core fans who want to delve into Keio vehicles from a technical perspective. This is a definitive book that those who live along the Keio Line and those interested in the history of Keio should definitely have in their hands. Those born in the 1960s will remember the scenery and vehicles of the Keio Line that they used as children, for commuting, and for leisure trips to Mt. Takao with their families. 1981 Hoikusha 156 pages Condition: In good condition for something over 40 years old.
