  • Keisei Electric Railway Co., Ltd. Incident Type
    Railway serious incident investigation report Railway operator : Keisei Electric Railway Co., Ltd. Incident type : Violating closure section for construction, the railway serious incident related with the situation that train ran in the section under construction works, while the construction work or the maintenance work that should be implemented to stop train operation was implemented, prescribed in Number 5, Clause 1, Article 4, of the Ordinance on Report on Railway Accidents, etc. Date and time : About 00:55, July 27, 2016 Location : At around 46,062 m from the origin at Keisei-Ueno station, between Keisei-Usui station and Keisei-Sakura station, double track, Keisei Main Line, Sakura City, Chiba Prefecture SUMMARY On July 27, 2016, the assistant manager of Sogo Branch Office of the Conductor's Office of Keisei Electric Railway Co., Ltd., accepted the request to start construction work in the down track between Keisei-Usui station and Sogosando station, from the person in charge of the closed track construction work. The assistant manager confirmed that the outbound 2345 train, the last train bound for Keisei-Narita station departing from the down track of Sogosando station, had departed from Sogosando station, and approved to start construction works at about 00:51. On the other hand, the outbound 2373K train, the last train bound for Keisei-Sakura station, departed from Keisei-Usui station about one minute behind schedule, at about 00:55, and went into the closed track section after the start of the construction works was approved. PROBABLE CAUSES It is highly probable that the serious incident had occurred as the 2373K train ran in the closed track section after the approval of the construction works that should be implemented to stop train operation, because the request to start the closed track construction works was approved without confirmed arrival of the 2373K train at Keisei-Sakura station, the last train bound for Keisei-Sakura station.

  • Preparation of Articles for the Symposium Report
    Improvement of Shimbashi Station on the Ginza Subway Line (the first subway in the East) Atsushi NUMATA1, Yasushi ARAI2 1Design Section Chief of the Renovation & Construction Department of Railway Headquarters, Tokyo Metro Co.,Ltd, 3-19-6, Higashi-ueno, Taito-ku, Tokyo, Japan, [email protected] 2 Design Section Deputy Manager of the Renovation & Construction Department of Railway Headquarters, Tokyo Metro Co.,Ltd, 3-19-6, Higashi-ueno, Taito-ku, Tokyo, Japan, [email protected] ABSTRACT: The Tokyo Metro railway network opened in December 1927 as the first subway in the east, with a 2.2-km stretch between Asakusa and Ueno on what is now the Ginza Line(Figure 1).By the time the Fukutoshin Line opened in June 2008, the network had expanded to include nine lines over a 195.1 km span of open tracks. Shimbashi Station is located at about the middle of the Ginza Line. It is a transfer station for JR, Toei subway lines, and the AGT system (the Yurikamome). Increases in the number of passengers in recent years have caused major obstructions to passenger flow. In addition, the structure of Shimbashi Station is integrated with the piers of the JR Bridge, and is adjacent to the piers of the Tokaido Shinkansen Bridge. Based on passenger flow simulations under the configurations of the existing station, this plan proposed sweeping changes to the layout of the station to alleviate congestion on the platforms and facilitate smooth transfers to other modes of transportation. INTRODUCTION The Tokyo Metro Ginza Line (“Ginza Line”) became the first subway in the eastern hemisphere when the 2.2-km stretch between Asakusa and Ueno stations opened on December 30, 1927.
